Give every student the gift of a butterfly!
This rewarding educational kit is designed specifically for teachers and classrooms. It enables each student to raise their own Painted Lady Butterfly and witness the wonder of the butterfly life cycle. The Live Butterfly Pavilion School Kit provides educators with many opportunities to teach science, math, reading, environmental studies and environmental awareness.
The entire transformation from caterpillar to adult butterfly takes between three to five weeks depending on the time of year, please take into account upcoming holidays when choosing a send out date for your kit to ensure the whole cycle can be observed.
