Anthill
|
|
Designed to look like a REAL anthill and to provide kids with an up close look at the world beneath the sand's surface here's a clever design inspired by nature. View from the convex side...you'll see surface ant activity. From the flat backside...there's an underground militia at work carrying out the duties of being...ants. Really focused, busy ants. We love the fact that kids get to feed and water their Western Harvester ants themselves...open the little top flap, drop in bits of fresh vegetables, fruits and water drops - every third day. Makes for a colony of insect pets that are easy to maintain and fun to watch. Especially when competition arises for carrying away the occasional bit of potato chip. (Hey! Who put that in there?) Not intended to be merely something to stare at - although, that is good recreation too... This kit comes complete with:
- website addresses for gathering ant data
- insect care pointers
- a diagram with labeled ant anatomy
- activities for home or classroom to expand learning.
- Includes mail in certificate for live ants!
- Includes special sand for successful burrowing
- Unique "cross-cut" design
- Oversized tunneling chamber for easy observation
