Gameplay
In this game, players enter Frankie's Animal Habitat Contest, advertised on TV and in JumpStart Habitat Magazine. Players travel to four different habitats: The Tide Pool, the Savanna, the rain forest, and the temperate forest.

In each location, the user must fill out Contest Sheets and complete mini-games. Whenever an animal is clicked, it will explain various facts about itself. Some animals also have mini-games associated with them, like the white-tailed deer, and some animals have songs associated with them like Big Gray the rhino.

The Contest Sheets consist of pages containing blank spaces for 6 photos, each blank space labeled with an animal descriptor such as "Carnivore" or "Makes its own shell". The user must take photos of animals that match the descriptions and place them in the correct spaces.

After finding all the animals, completing all the mini-games, and filling out the Contest Sheets, the player will receive a reward. The player can then collect stickers and craft ideas to print out.

There are three difficulty levels.

Trivia

 * Despite mentioning the Arctic and Desert biomes in the opening theme, neither of these appear in game. This opens speculation on whether they were cut from the game, or never made entirely.
 * However, an icon for the Desert biome shown in the form of a camel can be seen on a screenshot with the world map on the game's help page, implying that it was close to being put in the game before being scrapped last minute. The Desert biome might've also been where Tad and Wart would've went, as they are the only tadpoles in the game who don't go to any of the other environments.
 * The promotional Chick-fil-a release of the game contained a free trial to the then new JumpStart World.
