Just drop the alligator or dinosaur in water and watch it grow 5 to 10 times its original size... maybe more. These growing wonders are made out of a special superabsorbent polymer that soaks up water. The polymer is similar to the non-toxic chemical used in baby diapers. Of course, you can dry each of the creatures out and watch it shrink back down over time. Don't overlook the educational value of these popular toys.
