Editorial Review

Watch the world's most industrious engineers build bridges, dig tunnels, and move mountains. This deluxe Ant Farm Village comes with two stackable mini ant farms (both with colorful 3-D scenes) that can connect to the central ant village. Start with any of the three habitats by themselves and then connect the others one at a time with the flexible ant-way travel tubes. The accompanying instruction book offers useful tips for successful ant farming as well as a wealth of information about the insects. All necessary materials to begin an ant farm are included--even a certificate for free ants within the continental U.S. and Canada (consumer must pay only shipping and handling). --Heather Hawkins

My three year old got this for his birthday. The whole family has enjoyed it and has been fascinated by it. We considered using the ants from the backyard but I'm glad we chose to send for the ones that come with the ant farm. Those ones are much bigger and cannot escape from the ant farm. The tricky part is getting them in the farm. We had ant mayhem for a while. They were crawling out of the viles that they come in before we could get them in the farm. You will not regret getting this one. I'm purchasing a second one for my friend's son.

THE ANT FARM IS GREAT FUN TO WATCH AND OBSERVE THE ANTS. IF YOU READ THE LITERATURE YOU KNOW THE ANTS WILL EVENTUALLY DIE. I PURCHASED THIS AS A CHRISTMAS GIFT AND KNEW THE ANTS WOULD HAVE TO BE ORDERED, THIS DOESN'T SEEM TOO FUN TO GET A GIFT THAT WILL NOT WORK. I WENT ON LINE AND BOUGHT ANTS FROM LIFE STUDIES, ONLY $2.50 FOR 25 ANTS OR $3.50 FOR 50 ANTS AND ONLY $0.50 FOR S&H, CAN'T BEAT IT. THE ANTS CAME WITHIN APPROXIMATELY 10 DAYS AND I HAD TO WAIT ANOTHER WEEK FOR CHRISTMAS AND THEY WERE STILL ALL ALIVE WITH ONE OAT AND ONE DROP OF WATER I ADDED. THERE ARE STILL 10 ANTS OUT OF 25 ALIVE AT THIS TIME, BUT I FEEL THEY ARE VERY EASY TO REPLACE, JUST DON'T FORGET TO PUT THE ANTS IN THE REFRIGERRATOR FOR 10 MINUTES BEFORE PLACING THEM IN THE ANT FARM OR YOU WILL HAVE A DIFFICULT TIME CORRALLING THEM (THANKS TO NOT READING INSTRUCTIONS BY MY HONEY WHO WAS TOO EXCITED) BUT NONE OF THESE BIG ANTS BIT US AND WE HANDLED THEM PLENTY.
