The Big Message: Glass Frogs teach us that the bravest people aren't the ones who hide their feelings - they're the ones who have the courage to be open, honest, and real about who they are. This hoodie is for kids who want to learn that being vulnerable and sharing your true self is actually one of the most courageous things you can do.
What makes the Glass Frog so special? Glass Frogs are some of the most amazing and brave creatures in the rainforest! Their skin is so clear you can actually see their heart beating and their bones inside their body. While most animals try to hide and blend in, glass frogs are completely see-through and vulnerable to the world. But here's what makes them incredible - they don't try to hide who they are. They live openly on leaves, take care of their babies with total dedication, and show their true selves to everyone. Glass frogs teach us that being transparent and vulnerable isn't scary - it's beautiful and takes real courage.

Where do Glass Frogs live and how are they doing? Glass Frogs live in the cloud forests and rainforests of Central and South America, from Mexico down to South America. They need very clean streams and healthy forests to survive. Many glass frog species are threatened because their forest homes are being destroyed and climate change is affecting their delicate habitats. There are over 150 species of glass frogs, but many are becoming rare. When we protect rainforests and keep waterways clean, we're helping these brave, transparent creatures continue to live openly and beautifully!
