esp if you have kids. then they get to have the joy of the things. plus its always fun when they are gone and you wonder for days where they went.
I had sea monkeys as well, and they had an untimely death when my friend knocked and spilled them on my floor..
I loved those things!! I want some more, but they don't carry them in stores anymore I don't think. If anyone would like to get me a Christmas peasant, all I want is:
moth larva inside a seed... it eats the inside and puts silky strings all over and once it gets warm it wiggles around and "jumps"
yeah, and then you forget about them, put em in a drawer, and when you open it, there is a baby moth surrounded by moth carcasses, so you name him fred and try to feed him honey...
