Triops Longicaudatus (aka Triops) are fascinating creatures that first came into existence during the Triassic era whilst T-Rex, Triceratops and other dinosaurs still dominated. Their eggs evolved to survive period of drought, only to hatch once there has been sufficient rainfall. This rare characteristic enables us to safely store them until a time when it is convenient to care for them. Their relatively simple care, fascinating properties, energetic behaviour and short life-span, makes them excellent educational project for schools whilst being fascinating and fun for any family.The small pack contains Triops eggs, instructions for their care, food, water conditioner and a handy "Thermo-Strip" to ensure the water stays at the optimum temperature. 7cm

A colourful Christmas Marionette made from fabric and woollen pompoms
Gooey, stretchy figures that stick to glass and other smooth surfaces, then slowly ooze down
Flour filled soft rubbery face to be coaxed into weird shapes, happy smiles and sad grimaces
