Today’s toy review is one after my own heart. While most women everywhere absolutely hate all bugs in general I have a soft spot for ants, I find them simply amazing. The Antworks Tunnel Vision is an ant habitat that is filled with edible gel (you can buy extra gel when yours starts to wear thin) that your ant colony burrows through to create their own series of tunnels. The antworks tunnel vision habitat only comes with one section out of the picture above; however, it also comes with tunnel pieces that are unbreakable that can fit on to other tunnel works pieces so you can build on to your existing colony and allow your ants other sectors to explore which is a great

idea if you are looking for a project that you and your child can work on together over a period of time. With the tunnel feature you just slide the unbreakable tunnel pieces in to the sides of the two antworks sections you wish to join together and watch your ants travel through on their way to discovery! The ants for this one are sold seperately, unfortunately you can’t just go and catch your own because your colony needs a queen to survive but the habitat does come with the information to send off for your ants! Ants are a great way to teach your child about how other animals live and how their societies work. Being able to watch how ant colony’s designate work and establish their own societies is simply amazing and something every child should experience! Antworks habitats are sold in many places; however the tunnel vision sets are relatively new so you may have a slightly harder time finding them. If you can’t find one near you, you can order yours from Amazon for just under $25. |

I’ve seen these in our mall and always wondered how the ants eat, I think it’s pretty neat there’s food in that gel stuff already for them!

This sounds quite interesting….a question: Does that mean you can use this with real ants?

Yup, it sure does! I am 99.999% sure you send off for your real ants with a form that comes with the farm because finding ants in your backyard just won’t work since ants need a structured colony to thrive (no queen means no colony). The real ants can live inside the habitat because of the edible gel, it’s really pretty nifty!

hmmm… ants are just not my thing. They kind of give me the creeps! But this ant farm at least looks beautiful.

my girls love watching worms in the garden, I am sure they would love it. I am not sure my DH would go for it though
