    Enjoy every nature with your daughter !

    Study , watch , explore but leave the wild ones behind.
    Admire them in their natural habitat.
    I agree with Ginger and Lee - buy a captive bred frog?
    I remember nature walks with my son. He had such a blast taking observation notes.
    It can become very educational for children!

    Most frogs would be in hibernation. I've been un-able to spot any in winter.

    It's not too cold yet in Oregon. You probably have a good shot at seeing some. They won't be calling though, which makes them tricky to locate. As others have said, I wouldn't take them home with you but by all means look for them.

    Wild frogs should be appreciated thru a lens and paper. Theres no reason to hurt the wild stock. They are great to study there life in the wild.
