These Monkeys Won’t Climb Trees

Fish and turtles aren’t the only options when it comes to water-dwelling pets.  Sea monkeys are definitely a cooler and more exciting alternative.  Kids will be enchanted with these creatures which are really a type of brine shrimp but were dubbed “sea monkeys” because of their animated moves.
 
Educational Insights offers fantastic sea monkey kits for novice pet owners and for those who already own these swimming beings.  The Sea Monkeys Night Life Gems, for instance, which is ideal for kids 6 years and older, provides amazing illumination that would enable youngsters to view their frolicsome pets for hours.  Each set comes with a water purifier, growth food, an aquarium, instant live eggs, five close-up view ports, a submarine searchlight, an air pump, an aero-vent aquarium cover with magnifier, a calibrated feeding spoon, and three gorgeous, sealed-in-glass gem stones with phosphorescent pigments.  
 
If you wish to know what your frisky pets are up to in the wee hours, you’ll like Educational Insights’ Sea Monkeys Super Sleuth Set.  This fascinating find has several awesome features, such as the Super Sleuth Searchlight, the 50mm 3x magnifier, and the big, glow-in-the-dark monkey statue attached to the bottom of the tank that boosts algae growth and oxygenation, and attracts the creatures to its light.
