Snails are abundant where I live. One of my favorite activities to do with my daughter, Frida, is look for snails after a rain.
The Snails and Slugs page over at Backyard Nature is a very good source of information on snails. This site has many fun Snail activities such a making a terrarium for snails (see pictures above and below). The absolutely best page on fun teaching about Snails is here. Frida is still a bit young to appreciate most of the experiments, however, I think I could coax her into examining snails with a magnifying glass and/or maybe into a short snail race.

I am very facinnated with snails and I was wanting to get more info on them.Now, the reason that Iam wanting more info on them is mostly because I have been raising about 30 of them for almost 2 months. And I just want to take care of them. If you could just mail me some info, I would very much appreciate it.

Uh, Tasha, I was just wondering how this pic is gross. Cause, really, I do not see anything bad bout it! So why dont you just let these snails be? They cant hurt you or nothin! So just leave them alone.
