Solar Frog Posted 12/4/2009 by Patricia Layne
Looks like another favorite gift!
Sedated Frog Posted 8/30/2009
Our frog seems pretty slow even in direct summer sunlight. Not so much happy hopping as slow lurching. It would require supervision for assembly by children. The Frightened Grasshopper is more entertaining for kids in my opinion.
Review of Happy Hopping Solar Powered Frog Posted 2/2/2010 by Rex Harvey - OTHER
Ran out of time to put it together. Will finish soon. No way in hell that a 10 year old could assemble this kit!
Review for Happy Hopping Solar Powered Frog Posted 7/26/2010
My children were excited when they saw this on the internet. They got even more excited when they learned that they had to put it together. We have not used it yet because it is a Christmas present.
fantastic item Posted 12/20/2009 by Linda Lloyd
My daugther wants to be a scientist and found this toy facinating.
Maybe It Was Me... Posted 2/25/2008 by Edwin C Glover
It was impossible to assemble. It's still sitting in the box.
Cool Frog and Great Service Posted 1/18/2008 by Matt Meyer
Though in need of some adult assistance, this neat toy combines science, model making, and a love of animals and the environment. My seven year old son did all the preliminary work on his own, calling me in for a bit of final adjustments. Then, with light bulb to the solar panel (he couldn't wait till morning!), the cute new pet started hoping around. A nice and multifaceted product.
Attracts Attention Posted 8/3/2010 by Emmett Worick - GRANDPARENT
Again, I have no children so far to show it to, but the solar aspect of it demands attention from adults. I didn't know I would have to assemble it, but it was really a piece of cake. I made up a halogen lamp so that I can demonstrate the frog in action without the sun. It works beautifully. I have since ordered two more to give away after I assemble them.
solar powered frog Posted 12/28/2011 by Christine VanSlyke
The nine year old recipient was immediately drawn to the opportunity to build his own toy and was able to complete the task quickly with assistance. The toy is fun to play with and an interest in solar options to battery power was piqued.
Great toy Posted 11/3/2008 by Mary Collins
This was easy to put together and caught the interest of my 8 year old son immediately. We like it so much we bought the cricket too.
Product review of Happy Hopping Solar Powered Frog Posted 2/17/2008 by Peg
I purchased this toy for the son of a close friend as a birthday gift. He is very gifted when it comes to parts and engineering type toys. I thought it would be right up his ally. The solar powered part is great. It gives his mom a break from buying batteries for all the remote controlled toys they already own.

Pieces so small that they were lost immediately!
A rating of Happy Hopping Solar Powered Frog Posted 3/11/2010 by Margaret Mick
Put the frog together and it has never worked. They put it in several different windows and nothing. Very disappointed.
this one is realy cool Posted 11/8/2009 by David Taulbut - GRANDPARENT
My grand children and I had the most fun with this one they even took it to school.
Happy Hopping Solar Powered Frog Posted 1/10/2008 by William L Novak
My 12 year old son is very good at putting these types of products together. He could not get this to work. Then my husband also took it apart and tried to get it to work. No luck.
Review of Happy Hopping Solar Powered Frog Posted 1/3/2012
A little difficult to put together, pieces easily lost. 12 yr old able to assemble by himself.

cute and funny
Too sensitive to play Posted 5/26/2011 by Moayed Daneshyari
The frog was cool, but the problem with the product is too sensitive in design. After my son has put it on the sand to move, now it does not work, since I think somehow sand has gone into the frog from many cracks it has. It only worked for 2-3 hours and now it is a few days that it does not work anymore.
Review of Happy Hopping Solar Powered Frog Posted 3/9/2011 by Cheri Pilant
The Frog was for my 10 year old grand daughter's birthday gift. We have had very few days that she has been able to take it outside in the sun. When we did have a sunny day it didn't work very well. She had to keep tapping it on the head to get it to hop. We will try again when she can take it outside on a sunny day. If it doesn't work any better than it has, I think it was a waste of money--not very much fun! I expected it to hop around a lot.
Cool little guy! Posted 1/3/2011
Good basic design that is easy to put together and fun to play with.
Happy Kiddie From Posted 12/28/2010 by David Inwood - RELATIVE
It looks like a good product, and I was going to give it as a Christmas gift to my teenage brother, but I felt uneasy about it when I got it and saw a picture of a little kid in a scientist outfit on the box. It made it look more juvenile then I expected, and I wound up buying him some video game accessories instead. I am going to hang on to it, and will probably give it to someone younger for a birthday gift later in the year.
Bad Implementataion of Good Idea Posted 12/26/2009 by TC in KC
I ordered this thinking it'd be a great use of vacation time. The assembly was ridiculous. Directions were ok but LOTS and LOTS of small parts. My 10 year old could not assemble it herself. AND our frog does not work! Thinking we goofed the assembly up, I have taken this apart and reassembled 3 times (still not sure of directions for some parts). A great disappointment!
Nothing Hopping Yet Posted 3/16/2009 by Karen Longo - RELATIVE
We ordered the frogs and grasshopper for a school Science Fair at the end of April. Two second grade girls will be putting them together, then building some racing lanes out of foam core. The girls will be applying different light sources to the solar panels to see which frog hops the fastest/furthest. Stay tuned...
Review for Happy Hopping Solar Powered Frog Posted 5/3/2010
Won't know for a while as the item is being saved for a Christmas stocking stuffer.

My husband put the frog together for my son. They charged it according to the directions but it didn't work. They tried this process several times before we returned it for a refund. Now my son just has to decide if he would like order to something else in its place or reorder the same product (and cross our fingers that the first frog was just a lemon!).
