Butterfly Pavilion
Perhaps the true wonder of science is that a process as intricate as the metamorphosis of a caterpillar into a butterfly is also so exquisitely simple that even preschoolers appreciate it. We marvel at the steps; they delight in the process and (best of all) unhinge their little jaws when they see the butterflies take flight. Science in action, and delight in action right along with it! This magnificent butterfly pavilion comes with a certificate that you mail back in for 10 live Painted Lady caterpillars (continental U.S. delivery only, though). When kept in the right conditions (a spot warmer than about 55 degrees), the caterpillars form crysalides within about a week and then about a week after that emerge as beautiful butterflies right before your child's eyes.
