Product Information

Aspiring young ant-omologists will be captivated as they discover the amazing ant-ics of ants in this unique, escape-proof habitat with high-rounded walls that allows ants to freely roam the expanse of the container. After easy assembly, kids can watch ants lead each other to food, create networks of tunnels throughout the entire habitat, work together to build and defend their colony, and much more! The specially formulated "Sugar Cement" puts nutrients into the sand while making it cave-in resistant and energizing ants for faster movement. After kids begin tunnels in the sand with the starter tool, it's time to add the ants and observe their fascinating behavior as they forage and explore!

AntZone's snap-on lid with a built-in magnifier lets kids view ants close-up. Once the ants settle into their new environment, kids can conduct a variety of experiments with the included activity guide, including a vision exam for ants, determining what ants like to eat, testing their built-in chemical alert system against intruders, and more! The full-color, 17"x 22" "All About Ants" poster included describes the reproductive cycle, characteristics of several types of ants with photos, and ant behavior. Its reverse side features set-up and maintenance instructions.

Includes: habitat container with magnified lid, a bag of #12 silica sand, a mail-in coupon to receive ants separately within 2-4 weeks (a nominal fee is required for shipping, handling, and insurance), water dropper, tweezers, tunnel-starting tool, instructions, and poster/activity guide. Appropriate for Grades K+.
