This is an excellent learning kit. For those who are concerned about the frog's longevity, and the idea that some irresponsible frog parents may let them go, or worse, let them die, the company offers to take in any unwanted frogs:

Yesterday I got a little foam box in the mail. I took it out and open the "cork" type thing. It came with a little tadpole and an order form for supplies. At first I thought it was dead since the box wasn't moving much but the bowed moved!!! My grow a frog cube had a little crack in the bottom that S-L-O-W-L-Y driped. So we went to the pet store and got a new tank. Any way the tadpole is a little ball of enegry! Feeding is no problem becuase you just feed it a level spoonful once a day and then you watch it swim like a nut!! They hate light and run from it. P.S. DON'T GET THE "PLANET FROG" KIT!!They provide no instrucion manual for the tadpoles and they die easily. GET THIS!!!!!!!

I have had 3 frogs two are living hapily and one died after a month. They are fun to watch but expensive and a pain to clean. Also if you have them you can't go on vaccations. But they are cute fun to watch and they play with eachother and somtimes sing. overall they are a fun pet but i warn you cleaning is a 3 hour process that must be done twice a month.
Cool 15 year adventure with grow a frog - I'd do it again. November 8, 2007

Bought the 'grow a frog' at SW Randalls Toy Store in 1991 for my 5 year old niece. I thought the 'toy' harmless but my soon to be ex-sister in law thought it would be too traumatic when the frog died - translation I got custody of the grow a frog. Little did I know that this frog would live 15 years and grow to be larger than a big mans hand. Terminator tadpole RIP 2006 last tank was over 66 gallons. The Tpole was cool, we taught him/her (we weren't really sure, it had characteristics of both) to do a few tricks. Mostly Tpole was very low maintenance, laidback but needs to be in the tank alone. We tried mixing it up with fish of varying levels of aggression & yeah, the frog is a loner.
If you're considering this gift, remember this could turn into a decade+ commitment including tank swapping and cleaning. I would recommend the bigger tanks as they are easier to maintain. Overall, I would do it again, a very cool and low maintenance pet.
Finally a REALLY Cool non electronic gift November 21, 2007

Not that I don't let my kids play all the latest video and computer games but enough already. I saw this in another store actually and it is awesome! My son (7 years) loves frogs and if your child is interested in having a cool pet this is it. The tadpole is shipped to you and as it grows you can actually see the organs developing through it's skin. The frog is able to live in the water alone and only gets as large as the container they send you or the one you put it in. They are easy to keep, don't smell, you can leave them for a long trip and most importantly they are educational. Rock on Grow a Frog!!
