Yes, we got an ANT FARM! Well we FINALLY got our ants (it's been too hot to ship them this summer). I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend one of these things. If not only for your kids but adults too. These little buggers are amazing. We got a tube of them and wouldn't you know they sat in my office over the weekend because no one thought to call me even tho' it's stamped "LIVE animals" inside! Oh well some were still moving so I thought we would be ok. They said there are 25 harvester ants enclosed. Well when we dumped them in only about 5 were moving around. Cr@P! We're gonna have to order more. Well we put them in a cool dark room as instructed and by morning we counted 15 (at least) moving around and working. They had moved all the dead ones down and were already building tunnels. They're totally cool to watch!!!. Such a plan...and I wonder how they know to do all that they're doing?? So more pix to come but my camera battery went dead. So all you get are set up pictures for now.
Daddy reading the instructions...Carefully I hope!
Load 'em in! Make sure the lid is on TIGHT!!!!

Aaaah sweet?! See it looks like a whole bunch of dead ones. Well they're not! Kylie says they're all girls. Like she knows.
