I would imagine that a person would have to have a 300g tank or larger with a very large water feature ( as they like to spend large amounts of time in water ) even then I'm not sure they would be content. That said I commend you for your interest in trying to educate people & kids in herping perhaps a common tree frog may be a better choice...just saying
This is the first time I have found any eggs since when a child (but back then it was just a few Fowler's Toad eggs). I wanted people to see what eggs looked like.

Edit: I realize now it was a mistake. I wish I had a camera and snapped a good pic.
