Today, we take a look back at a true classic, an educational toy that lives and breaths and burrows and scurries. For over fifty years, kids have stared intently through the clear plastic walls of their formicarium (the scientific term for ant farm), as their new ant friends labor intensively to construct a sand-tunneled utopia. Granted, anyone can build one of these observation instruments with a handful of easy-to-obtain supplies, but we have long put our trust into a man named Milton Martin Levine, known to millions of kids as Uncle Milton, to supply us with his special Ant Farms.In case you are wondering if there have been any space-age advances since the first ant farms, rest assured that ant farm technology continues to progress. Uncle Milton offers a new Ant Farm Gel Colony, as well as an Illuminated Ant Farm Gel Colony. Take a look for yourself:
