WES Under Water City Triopolis

Build an underwater habitat and grow prehistoric creatures with this STEM kit. Triops are "living fossils" which are identical to their prehistoric kin from millions of years ago. They can survive by suspended animation which helps them stop their biological clock. Children will lay Triops eggs in the Hatchery, observe feeding habits in the Cafe and watch reactions to light in the Night Club. As children conduct experiments, they will learn about Triop's behavior, eating habits, movement patterns and more. Develop their analytical, problem-solving, creative and observation skills as they build an underwater world. Includes safe, high-quality ingredients and a full-color education and instruction booklet. The Triops will hatch within 2-3 days. 8-12 Triops eggs are included. For ages 8+.
