Nature Pavilion Review and Giveaway...

We recently had the chance to review an Ant Hill from Nature Pavilion.


About Nature Pavilion:
"Nature Pavilion's mission is to find unique high quality nature and science gifts and toys and offer them at a reasonable price to our customers."

About the Ant Hill:
"The world’s first living ant habitat designed like a real ant’s home. Just mail the certificate in the kit, along with $4.00 handling fee, and soon you’ll receive a generous supply of live ants, ready to dig in. Watch as these hard-working critters burrow underground to create an amazing network of subterranean tunnels, walkways and secret chambers. The Ant Hill’s unique “cross-cut” design features an over sized tunneling chamber for easy observation and a wide base that makes tipping over virtually impossible. Includes fun ant activities and complete instructions. For ages 6 and up."

What we thought: The Ant Hill was a really fun science experiment for the kiddos. They enjoyed putting the Ant Hill together(with help from Mom and Dad...ages 6 and up could definitely do it with minimum help) and caring for the ants. They really learned a lot about ants by watching them tunnel and build and by feeding and watering them occasionally. The Ant Hill was easy to set up and maintain and is really constructed in a way that allows maximum viewing of the ants at work and little risk of tipping the hill over. Nature Pavilion provides a wide variety of educational products that will really get your kiddos excited about science and learning in general:) ABCD Diaries gives Nature Pavilion and the Ant Hill an A+!
