You knew that ants dig in the ground, but can they dig in space? With the AntWorks Habitat Science Kit Illuminated, kids will learn about that and more! Based upon the 2003 NASA Space Shuttle experiment that studied animal life in space, the AntWorks Habitat Science Kit Illuminated lets kids watch as ants tunnel in the special, non-toxic translucent gel - which also serves as their nutrient source. This funky blue ant habitat makes observing ants and their 3D tunnels easy, and requires little work on your part (they don't need food or water!). Plus, the included blue LED lights with power adapter really make ant watching cool and fun! The AntWorks Habitat Science Kit makes your "pets" interesting by providing an instruction booklet full of great facts about ants, an ant catching/tunnel starter tool, a magnifying glass, blue LED lights, and an extreme zoom lens for observation. With the AntWorks Habitat Science Kit, kids will be able to watch an ant colony in the making right before their eyes! Measures 6.5"L x 6"W x 1.25"D and includes send-away gift certificate for live ants.
