Why frogs? With extreme sensitivity to changes in their environment, frogs are canaries in the coal mine of climate change. Places where frog populations are in decline tend to be where the environment is most at risk. They can be found in rural and urban settings, so are accessible for kids from all walks of life. Connecting with nature has been proven to positively impact kids’ moods, confidence, sense of empathy and social responsibility.
