Sedated Frog

Our frog seems pretty slow even in direct summer sunlight. Not so much happy hopping as slow lurching. It would require supervision for assembly by children. The Frightened Grasshopper is more entertaining for kids in my opinion.

We gave this as a birthday present, and the recipient was very pleased. Will be interested to hear what he thinks after assembling...
Nothing Hopping Yet

Setting: School
We ordered the frogs and grasshopper for a school Science Fair at the end of April. Two second grade girls will be putting them together, then building some racing lanes out of foam core. The girls will be applying different light sources to the solar panels to see which frog hops the fastest/furthest. Stay tuned...
Great toy

This was easy to put together and caught the interest of my 8 year old son immediately. We like it so much we bought the cricket too.

It was impossible to assemble. It's still sitting in the box. (Note from Fat Brain Toys: Upon contact with our customer, we discovered that a piece was missing from the kit. A replacement frog was sent. Happy hopping, solar frog!
