Since my family has moved in, the children have acquired 1 cat with 4 kittens, a garter snake, various bullfrog tadpoles and goldfish from the pond, and as of this afternoon, a toad. They are having such a great time and take such good care of their pets!

I strongly believe kids should have pets. Teaches responsibility and caring if done correctly. Congrats!

They released the toad today and will release the snake tomorrow. DH told them that if they keep the animals too long they will forget how to take care of themselves. Plus, there are multitudes of toads and garters here ;-)

It he pets have also been a nice addition to our homeschooling classes as I require the children to research and write about how to care for the animals in order to keep them for any length of time. It worked well!
