How does a water-breathing\, swimming anim al with fins\, a long tail\, and no legs turn into a four-legged\, air-bre athing animal without a tail that hops around both on land and in water? J oin us as we explore one of nature's most remarkable animal transformation s: the metamorphosis of a tadpole (or pollywog) into an adult frog. We'll learn what life is like for these amphibians that emerge from their winter hibernation in the springtime and their environmental significance\, incl uding the important role they play for humans in dealing with pesky insect s. We'll have a brief presentation about the life cycle of frogs\, meet a couple of frog characters from stories\, have a sing-along with fun moveme nts\, and get a chance to make and/or color a frog using basic craft mater ials. Age 3-10.
