Paul,

Thanks for the list, I can really use it.  

I have a wonderful book to recommend as a nature guide for young people.
I use it in our summer camp and the students take it home and can
continue to add to it over time.  It is called My Nature Guide and was
written by Adrienne Olmstead.  The company is Pajaro and the website is
http://www.parjaro.com .  They also give good discounts for large
orders.

Hi Benjamin,

I'd direct your attention to The Great Big Exhibit Resource List, a  
constantly updated compendium of exhibit resources and suppliers  
organized by category: <www.orselli.net/sources.htm>

There's an entire section of "Fake Food"

One of the "usual suspects" for cheap fake groceries is Childcraft  
<www.childcrafteducation.com>

Good Luck!
