Butterfly Garden August 4, 2008 This is a fantastic way to introduce a child to the wonders of nature. I gave one to my grandaughter for her 4th birthday and she was absolutely thrilled
Butterfly treehouse August 1, 2008 This was very enjoyable for my 4 year old granddaughter. We are now in the process of waiting for the butterflies to erupt out of the crystalis. She is so excited to see the butterflies. We check it daily. I would recommend this product for any child, of course it needs adult supervision, but it is well worth it.
Fun toy for all ages! August 1, 2008 We bought this butterfly pavilion for our grandson and put it up for him in our house (where he comes every day). It has been great fun for all of us to watch. The catapillars arrived in a timely manner and they behaved just as described in the literature. We have all learned from it.
LIttle over priced for what you get July 31, 2008 Over all I'm satisfied with the product even though the garden is just a mesh pop-up cylinder with a silkscreen image and it took over 2 weeks to get the larva. I guess it was my fault for under estimating the management of my 4 year old, getting the butterfly kit without the caterpillars. Though I immediately mailed the card with my $3, it took over 2 weeks to get the larva. Now that we have everything, he's very excited and checks them out everyday. It was just the management of getting the garden and then having him waiting. If I had to do it all over again, I would order a kit that came with everything all at once.
Age Appropriate? Not sure July 30, 2008 Product was purchased for my three year old's birthday. She was all excited by the commercials -- who am I to deny her an opportunity to be in touch with mother nature. I was disappointed to learn that my purchase was little more than a nylon cage and an additional six dollar bill for caterpillars. The free caterpillar gift certificate is coupled with a six dollar shipping fee -- the fine print on the box gets me every time! I received the caterpillars and all four have gone through metamorphosis, three still in their cocoon and one has emerged as a butterfly. The one butterfly is excreting a blood like substance and my daughter is freaking out. I am all about exposing my child to nature, but this is too graphic. There is no documentation/warning and therefore no opportunity for me to protect my child. She is traumatized. Folly of me to think that she would be dancing around my front yard chasing her newly released butterflies. Stay away unless your child is able to stomach what actuality is more like a butterfly morgue. Disappointed.
