Young Scientists Learn About Frogs

Watching a creature grow from birth to maturity is a special science lesson that most urban children seldom experience. The process of metamorphosis is especially fascinating. Raising frogs from tadpoles is a great idea, until you think of the possibly of wading through muck trying to scoop up a few specimen who may or may not live. Tthe kits below come with aquatic frogs who will spend their entire life in water. The habitat and the supplies provide the frog with the right balance of algae and other microorganisms to keep the frog healthy and well-fed. I have read that a well taken care of the frog, can live 8 to 30 years.They can eat bloodworms, brine shrimp or water fleas carried by most  pet stores.

Grow-A-Frog frogs are domesticated frogs bred on Three Rivers’ farms; Three Rivers claims they are not found in nature. And yes, they are guaranteed to live. Because of the specimen’s translucent skin, you will observe not only the external growth, but you will also see the frog’s internal development.

These frogs also make excellent pets for children who are allergic to other animals.
