When not in use it folds flat for easy storage. Once the chrysalides have hardened, gently move them to the pop-up butterfly habitat. Keep a close eye on the habitat so you don't miss the fascinating birth of your Painted Lady Butterflies.
This Insect Lore Live Butterfly Garden Hatching Kit is a great way to combine fun and learning for kids. Suitable for all ages, it offers a step-by-step guide for children on how to take caterpillars all the way through their transformation into butterflies. A surefire way to spark an interest in Mother Nature, it also provides hours of family fun.
My granddaughter loves this,a brilliant educational toy,it’s outrageous that you have to pay an additional £2.99 to get the caterpillars posted out,should be included in the original price which is also a bit expensive for basically a net! Still totally worth it to see her little face light up though.
Although the advert does state you receive a voucher for the caterpillars you have to go online using your voucher to order the caterpillars and then you are charged postage on top, once you have paid you then have to have to select a date for them to post out, the nearest date I could get was 6 weeks away, this kind of puts a dampener on it for the kids as they have now lost interest in the idea. Probably best not to tell your kids about it until after the caterpillars arrive.
It's amazing educational product. My kids just been happy to see all that proces from catepillar to butterfly. Just 1 catepillar didn't make it to turn to butterfly - but it's a life, isn'it?
My 5 year old son was interested in bugs as he was studying them at school. He kept the caterpillars in his bedroom and checked daily for changes, even taking them to school to show the class. When the day came, we released them and now, each time he sees a red admiral, he says "there's my butterfly!".
Perfect for a teacher to use in class but make sure you time it right so that they don't emerge in the holidays!
A brilliant cost effective kit that will teach my nephew many lessons at once!
My nephew loves nature and my sister hates mess. The caterpillars which will then change into butterflies not only teaches him about metamorphosis at a young age but also allows him to interact with something he is passionate about.
I was a bit dubious about sending off a voucher to get them but I could do it all online as well! I’m a teacher and know what is coming up in the curriculum and my sister does not like mess. These were the best pets to invest in and I can buy them back next year so he can learn the lesson all over again. Brilliant educational resource.
