searching for a rubber frog

My 2 1/2 yr old son only wnats one thing for Christmas, a rubber or plastic frog. I have been searching EVERYWHERE and cant find any. I even searched all over the web, nothing!
When I was a kid there were rubber snakes, frogs, bugs, you name it.
I have not tried walmart or bennys yet. They're my last hope. I spoke with the a clerk at KB toy and she said they usalluy get them but not this year.
I know the kids will be devasated if he doesnt get one, any ideas???????????

Might want to try some of the "Educational" Stores like at the Zoo. You might find something at Sparks on route 44 in Smithfield, RI

Don't get a real one

Also, Bennys, and TRus often have the $2 bags with a bunch of small plastic ones - kids love 'em but hit or miss to find. And they hurt when stepped on barefoot...

Try IParty or another party store. I'm pretty sure they have them.

If you heard him say "Daddy, I've been a good boy, Santa is going to bring me a frog" it brings tears to my eyes, I'd pay anything!

What about one of the sponsers on the FLW tour. All those guys use rubber frogs at time for bait. Thats probably smaller than what you were thinking about though.
