Some options include Pollywogs, spawn, fry, wigglers, and sprats. Some of these synonyms are regional in nature such as Pollywogs, which is more common in the United States. Spawn is another term that is commonly used to describe the eggs of amphibians and fishes. Nevertheless, whichever word you choose, the wiggly, wriggling tadpoles will remain one of the most interesting and fun creatures to watch and learn about.
