Hahahah I used to have some of these when I was a teen in the 80's! I haven't thought about them, or seen any like them, since then. This post made me bust out laughing! My Grandma even had a set!

My mom did ceramics when I was a kid. These were pretty popular in the 1970s.

This looks like it was painted by a 5th grader whose teacher told him to make a frog sculpture. Jokes on her for not turning it upside down.

Reminds me when I was in school(in Peru) and the Biology teacher explained human reproduction by telling us(all girls) it was like a male frog jumping on a female.

My mom had one of these in the 70's or 80's but it was on a rubber disk. Some business gave it out as a promotional item.
