Insect Lore Butterfly Garden (Packaging May Vary)

Product Information

Children can see how butterflies change as they grow with the Live Butterfly Garden by Insect Lore and then release them in your very own garden. Butterfly wings are formed by layers of "chitin", the protein that makes up an insect's exoskeleton. This kit contains a reusable Butterfly Garden Habitat, a voucher for caterpillars to be sent to you, an instruction and information guide and feeding pippette. After seven to ten days they will hang upside down and harden into chrysalids (chrysalids are also known as pupae). But for the education value, and the joy on my daughters face when they first started pupating, and then again when they emerged as stunning butterflies, it is well worth the cost.

The 30 cm tall reusable butterfly habitat is made of super clear mesh for better viewing and folds flat when not in use. Includes reusable, washable pop-up habitat net (30cm tall), voucher to purchase 5 caterpillars, nutrition, feeding pipette and full instructions.
