Butterfly Garden Kit |
Did you know that butterflies like to drink from slices of freshly cut oranges? That chrysalides shaking is a natural instinct to ward off predators? That caterpillar poop is called "frass"?
Children watch and learn as five tiny caterpillars turn into beautiful painted lady butterflies right before their eyes. The Live Butterfly Garden kit comes with a beautiful, airy, butterfly-friendly garden habitat, a certificate for five FREE painted butterfly caterpillars, and a complete butterfly care and instruction guide bursting with fascinating butterfly facts and cool activities. Simply mail in the certificate and within 2 weeks, 5 painted lady caterpillars will be delivered right to your doorstep. The complete metamorphosis of caterpillars to butterflies will take approximately three weeks and the butterflies can be expected to live for 2-4 weeks. A great way to bring the magic of nature into your home or classroom. The bright and colorful mesh habitat folds for easy storage.
The Butterfly Garden Kit is a perfect way to teach young learners about metamorphosis. Metamorphosis is the term used to describe a form of development from egg to adult in which there is a series of distinct stages. Complete Metamorphosis is when there is no suggestion of the adult form in the larval stage, e.g., in the transformation from tadpole to frog or from larva to pupa to adult in bees and butterflies. When the successive larval stages resemble the adult (as in the grasshopper and the lobster), metamorphosis is called incomplete.
Note: Butterflies can only be shipped within the Continental USA. We cannot ship to Hawaii, Mexico, or Canada.
