Spawn!

• The female adult frog lays a mass of eggs (around
  10,000) .
• This mass of eggs is called the spawn
• Inside each of these little eggs a tadpole is
  developing

• The tadpoles have a small oval body, gills for
  breathing underwater, and long tail with fins on
  upper and lower parts of the tail for swimming.
• These tadpoles will eventually lose the tail and
  gills and become an adult frog.
• Tadpoles live in the water.

Froglets

• This is the short stage between the tadpole and
  the adult frog.
• This is the point where the frog will first be
  able to leave the water and breath air.
