Ants are fascinating creatures and this habitat is the perfect way for kids to explore how they live, work and feed. Launched in 1956, the world-famous Uncle Milton Ant Farm has sold over 20 million units in the Unitied States.

Fantastic educational fun for kids as they can watch the ant "engineers" dig a myriad of interconnecting chambers and tunnels. You can even connect up a series of ant farms using the clear plastic tubing which is included in the pack.

The habitat is easy to set up and then we encourage children to collect their own ants from the garden. Alternatively you can mail-order a European ant species from a laboratory using the enclosed coupon (there is a p&p charge for this service).

Includes:

• The Ant Farm (with 4 connecting antports)
• Tunnelling sand
• Antway travel tube
• Ant watcher's manual
• Stock certificate to send for the ants
• The habitat is approx 23 X 15 cm
• Colour may vary

Suitable for ages 6 and up.
