FROGS
We didn't do this today in Homeschooling, we did this a couple weeks ago, but we met a lady recently and were at their house and their kids were talking about some frog eggs in the pond beside their house.
They said hey wanna take some home? I said *gag* "sure why not, it will be fun for a science project...." right? *gag*
So one of the kids got a big empty pickle jar and went and scooped some up for us and we carried them home to begin our project.... watching them hatch into tadpoles and then turn into frogs.
So as you see we have a few pictures of the kiddies looking at the little boogers.... *gag again*.... well anyway we asked around about what we should feed them once they hatched and the best advice we could come up with was fish food. So i went to the german pet store and also tried to ask them what to feed a frog... they were clueless. I mean to what i was saying not to what a frog should eat.
So needless to say we brought home the food and at some point forgot about even feeding them and smiley took upon her little self to feed the tadpoles... lets just say they were well fed! Which may or may not have led to their death the next day.
May i say though that when tadpoles have a small space to live in and are very hungry they can swim so fast they make the water spin!
