Ants and Technology Meet...Finally
When I was a kid I had an ant farm. It was filled with sand, and I had to order the ants. They arrived in a tube, and I remember how fascinating it was to watch them interact; how they shook antennae as they passed in congenial greeting, how they tunneled and worked as a team. But my ants weren’t very space age savvy. They didn’t know about NASA or going to space, and they didn’t live in a gel that would support their lives if they so chose to take up the mission, pack their little ant trunks, and head out into the final frontier.
The ants sitting on our bookshelf today are ready for anything, including a trip into outerspace. Space Ants by Fascinations is a unique ant farm that combines learning about the underground world of ants with some space age technology. The ants in the Space Ants farm live in a gel that contains all the nutrition and building material they’ll need to live out their tunnel-digging lives in well-fed bliss. Parents can teach their kids about teamwork, nature, and technology all with the Space Ants as a great learning tool! And I gotta say it looks pretty cool on a bookshelf…

First time clock
MY GRANDCHILDREN AND I WOULD LOVE THE WORLD ALIVE BUTTERFLY KIT
So many things to choose. My grandkids would find it fun grow crystals with the Magical Crystal kits, so that might be the first.
I like the SPIDER CATCHER!
Friday’s entry
Every thing is so cool, but I would like the Worm Observatory.

I also like the First time clock™ – puzzle clock
My wife is a little less excited than I am but I think my son would love the bug catcher, he is always catching something or other. He and his uncle skinned a raccoon (it had died by the side of the road the night before.
Gear up clocks has a place with our clock collection. See time in motion as gears turn in these stunning timepieces offered by Fascinations.
Thanks for the giveaway… “Nature’s Fire-Undersea Volcano” would look cool in any dorm room, next to the lava light.
I like Nature’s Fire.
I am intrigued by the Spider Catcher. I refuse to kill bugs, my fiance refuses to be in the same room as one; this would be the perfect middle ground.
The “Magic Fish” instant killifish would be a good way to teach people of all ages the concept of diapause. It would be nice to induce the fish to spawn generational replacements. Better than instant brine shrimp sold as “SeaMonkey”.
Your ant farm is better than “Uncle Milton’s”!
I love the Magic Turtle Bowl!
I subscribed to your blog.
everything there is amazing!
The solar flyer is really neat, I love solar powered stuff,
Thanks for the giveaway >^..^<
I don’t need an ant farm. I just want to share that I, too, had an ant farm when I was a child, but apparently we were too poor to order the ants, so I just had to gather wild ants from the yard. It wasn’t the same.
My 07/24 entry : ) TGIF !!
