Why our Child-Experts Love It


The Butterfly Garden is a unique and fascinating way for a child to learn about nature, firsthand. Your child will witness each stage, from cocoon, to caterpillar, to butterfly. He/she will love watching the changes and enjoy releasing the butterfly into the backyard when its metamorphosis is complete.

Features and Skills


  • This educational toddler toy is a great way to interest your child in the world of science and nature. The Butterfly Garden and Pavilion come with a certificate to send away for five live caterpillars and food.
  • Together, choose a place for your caterpillars to live. Put the caterpillars and the food in the garden or pavilion and wait for them to turn into butterflies. Explain to your preschooler that a caterpillar eats and eats to get lots of energy, then it makes a cocoon and when it comes out, it's a butterfly!
  • When it turns into a butterfly have your child remember the process and explain to you what happened to the caterpillar. At first your child may find it alarming that the caterpillar is no longer there. Remind him/her that it really is still there, just as a butterfly instead.
  • You can have a bonding moment with your child as you go outside and release the butterflies into nature again. He/she may be sad to see his/her pet go, but you can use this opportunity to teach your child to respect nature. The butterfly would probably be happier flying around inn the garden than being cooped up in the container, right?
