Frogs lay eggs in a long string of mucus. You can generally see this if the frogs are still mating. If you, just use a small bucket and scoop up both frogs.

First of all, don't "over" collect.  That will be tempting.  There are far more eggs in a single cluster than you might think.  Take a large jar with a lid.  Place the jar in the water and let the egg mass "flow" into the jar with the surrounding water.  Make sure there's plenty of water in the jar with the eggs.  Take them home quickly.  Do not leave them in the jar too long.

At home, you should have already prepared an aquarium for them.  A ten gallon is a good size.  It should have an "underground" filter with about 1-1/2" of gravel on it.  Also have an air stone in the water for good airation.  Keep the aquarium in your room since the room temperature should be fine for the developing tadpoles.  AFTER the eggs hatch, feed the tadpoles Algae Flake Fish Food.  Only the "algae" flakes will give them the proper nutrition they need to develope properly into frogs.  After they've changed into frogs and their tails are completely absorbed into their bodies, take them out to the ponds where you collected the eggs and release the little frogs into the wild.  They will love you for it and will happily fullfill their roll in helping the environment by eating flys and other bugs, and also being the food for Garter Snakes, Egrets, other big frogs, Shrews, and other animals.

You'll be happy in the knowledge that you helped the environment of our planet by protecting the tadpoles from predators while they grew up.

It's great fun watching them grow and develop.  We should always love the little animals of our earth, because without them WE would not be here.
