Some of the Australia's Vanishing Frogs teams are family expeditions which cater for children from 10 years of age onwards. Please check the Booking Info tab for dates. During family expeditions children will be placed in a team with at least one of their parents. The aim here is to help with monitoring the needs of children. Children will be integrated into all the aspects of the program, our experience is that they have good skills at spotting frogs and especially enjoy this aspect. On the other hand if they're not in the mood to listen to the scientific explanation of why frogs are endangered alternative activities such as a bush walk or a game can be arranged at these times depending on need.
