Mighty Beanz is a collectable children's toy line of plastic beans created by Moose Enterprises in Melbourne, Australia.

[3] History [ edit ] Original line [ edit ] There is a unique phenomenon known as jumping beans in the Mexican states of Sonora and Chihuahua. In the pod of the shrub, a tiny moth larva rises and uncurls, causing the bean to jump; the moths curl up and uncurl into the capsules, causing the bean to jump. Insects are thought to move in this manner to shade themselves from the hot desert sun and protect them from its harmful effects. Mexican jumping beans, in addition to staying active for three to five months, begin to age more slowly. This is why they are entertaining and short-lived, both for children and adults.

The jumping bean moth lays eggs inside developing flowers of the plants. The eggs hatch and the larvae grow inside the hardened beans. The beans jump around because the larvae move inside the bean, somewhat like the marble inside the foil capsule. What makes a jumping bean so jumpy is the larva of a small grey moth that has burrowed inside the seed pod and eaten the seed. Once the seed is gone, this larva has a peculiar fondness for leaping about inside the empty pod, making its new home jump and roll from place to place. Why do Mexican jumping beans move around? Mexican jumping beans are about the size of a kernel of corn or a small bean. The thing that makes these beans jump is a tiny moth larvae that lives inside the bean. The moth lays its eggs in the flower of the plant, and the eggs are incorporated into the seeds.The Mighty Beanz line was originally launched in Australia at the beginning of 2002 and found their way to United States markets that summer. Five beans were created: According to F.A. Leach, they can jump over one centimeter vertically and twice as far horizontally.

Because the larvae were attempting to free themselves from the pod as a means of beginning their own life cycle, the beans’ movement is related. As a result, if the larvae are left in the bean pod for an extended period of time, they become more stressed and uncomfortable. Mexican jumping beans are actually the seed pods of a type of shrub that is native to Mexico, and the bean itself is the larva of a small moth. The beans can live for up to five years in the right environment. The beans need to be kept in a warm, humid environment, and should be watered regularly. When the bean is ready to hatch, it will begin to jump around. After the hatching process is complete, the bean will die. It is important to note that the life span of Mexican jumping beans can vary greatly depending on their environment and the amount of care they receive.
