There are about 1800 different kinds of frogs and toads. All are amphibians. In the spring. female frogs lay hundreds of eggs in the water. The eggs hatch into tadpoles that look like black dots in blobs of jelly. The tadpoles change into frogs and toads as they grow.
Frogs and toads are found almost everywhere in the world. They eat insects and worms, which they catch with their tongues. When they are scared, they puff up with air. This makes it harder for their enemies to swallow them. Male frogs and toads have deep, booming voices.
