A colorful paint box is the hiding place for the Dumbugs - five little insects that scurry behind paintbrushes, crayons and other objects. Your child's challenge is to find one special bug who's hiding. Is that Ollie, the footloose, green caterpillar behind the big, yellow pencil? Your child will find out, playing "I'm Hiding," the game that requires classification and deductive reasoning skills to be a successful Bug Hunter!

Fun Fact

In early advertising brochures, this game was called Bug HuntItalic text, apparently, in an effort to sound similar to Honey Hunt which is another MBX title developed by Joyce Hakansson Associates.[1]

Note to Parents

Milton Bradley and Texas Instruments, two companies that create entertaining and educational products for your child, work together to bring you Bright BeginningsTM games. Bright Beginnings is a special software series that allows your child to discover, explore, and learn. Milton Bradley and Texas Instruments believe that video activities should do more than bring bright smiles-they should also bring bright ideas. That's why Bright Beginnings combines fun and learning so successfully.


The Bright Beginnings cartridges are designed to be age-appropriate, introducing the proper learning tool at the right time in your child's life. The games encourage your child to interact with the computer as creatively as possible through exploratory learning activities.

There's something special in Bright Beginnings for you, the parent. Included in this instruction booklet is a Discovery Guide that tells you exactly what learning skills your child is developing. The Discovery Guide also goes one step further and suggests additional related activities that you and your child can do together. All of the activities include helpful hints on how to encourage children to develop learning skills by exploring the environment.

I'm Hiding was developed by Joyce Hakansson Associates, Inc., an independent production company. The JHA approach to fun and learning blends excellence from a number of disciplines. Their design team consists of artists, writers, musicians, child development experts, programmers, and an academic advisory board all working together to create interactive learning games that build on your child's inherent love of play.
