What's Mr Toad's Wild Race like?

[carriep1657]

Are there real toads or is some sort of mechanical toad? Is it difficult to get a spot in the race? Is it something that parents do with their kids?

Any info would be appreciated. My kids really want to do this but we know nothing about it.

Its a piece of wood shaped like a frog on a piece of rope..you pull the rope and the frog moves up it.

When our son was younger we did it as a family thing, mom and dad helping pull and let go of string. This last time our son did it all his self and won. It's kinda cute because you have to name your frog and then tell what sound it makes. They run the races in heats. We love it.

Hello,
You can help small chidren pull on the rope to make their frog jump. My grandkids loved it. It is a nice family activity.

Thanks, everybody. It sounds like fun. We'll have to give it a try.
