Product Description
Product Description
The Live Butterfly Pavilion gives children, students and families an unforgettable opportunity to watch caterpillars change into chrysalides and then emerge as beautiful Painted Lady Butterflies. Raise and feed your very own butterflies and then release them into the wild! The entire transformation from caterpillar to adult butterfly takes about three weeks, depending on the temperature and humidity in your area. The Butterfly Pavilion Habitat is a reusable, 2-foot tall cylindrical mesh container perfect for up close butterfly viewing! It conveniently hangs from the Velcro strap or can be placed on a table or desktop. When not in use, it folds flat for easy storage. Once the chrysalides have hardened, gently move them to the pop-up butterfly habitat. It will take about seven to ten more days for them to complete the transformation to adult butterflies. Everyone will want to keep a close eye on the habitat so they can witness the fascinating birth of their Painted Lady Butterflies.

Claim Your Live Caterpillars OnlineMany Insect Lore Butterfly kits include live caterpillars that ship as soon as the order is placed. This Butterfly Pavilion does not come with live caterpillars, but instead allows you to claim them online, giving you the flexibility to start raising your butterflies when you are ready. This makes the kit a perfect choice to give as a gift, and also gives owners the option to wait for the right season or temperature to raise butterflies. As soon as you are ready for your caterpillars, simply go online and claim your baby caterpillars to have them shipped live to your door. |
Baby Caterpillars Grow Inside of the CupOnce you have received your cups of baby caterpillars, they will eat and grow inside it until it is time for them to create their chrysalides (commonly referred to as cocoons). The inside of the cups includes all the nutritious food that caterpillars need. Place the cups in a safe place away from direct sunlight. The caterpillars will remain in the cups and eat, spin silk, and grow to ten times their original size! After seven to ten days, they will hang upside down and harden into chrysalides. |
Watch them Transform in Front of Your EyesWhen the caterpillars have reached the chrysalis stage, you can place the lids from the cups in the deluxe chrysalis stations and place it inside of the specially designed mesh pavilion. It will take about seven to ten more days for them to complete the transformation to adult butterflies. Once your butterflies have emerged from the chrysalides, place fresh flowers in the habitat for your butterflies to rest on. Use the feeding dropper included to drip sugar water, or nectar, on the flowers. Enjoy your butterflies for a few days, let them go, and watch in excitement as they continue their amazing life cycle. |

On a negative note, I thought that the kits were over priced, especially considering that the caterpillars have to be ordered separately (£3.99 p&p x2 due to two kits being ordered)
That aside, I think it was worth it for my children to experience a life cycle that has left them with an appreciation of nature and the world around them.
