Product Description

Discover the full butterfly life cycle with a complete raise-and-release kit from the originators of caterpillar-to-butterfly learning. This STEM-accredited kit gives students a front-row seat to metamorphosis—observe caterpillars grow, form chrysalides, and emerge as Painted Lady butterflies.

  • What's included: 12" pop-up habitat, voucher redeemable for 5 caterpillars, reusable butterfly feeder, Chrys-A-Lid holding log, pipette, STEM activity journal, and step-by-step instructions.
  • Project scope: An immersive ~3-week observational project that demonstrates growth, life stages, and behavioral changes.
  • Learning tools: STEM journal for daily observations, guided activities, and data recording to support inquiry-based learning.
  • Voucher & shipping: Kit does not include live insects. Voucher redeems for a Cup of Caterpillars (up to 5 Painted Lady caterpillars). Live caterpillars can only be shipped to the continental U.S.; an additional shipping & handling fee (manufacturer notes $5) applies. For best results redeem when temperatures are between 50–90°F.
  • Durable & reusable: Reusable habitat and feeder make this a repeatable classroom or home science resource.

Homeschool use

This kit supports inquiry-based science lessons at home or in the classroom. Use the included STEM journal to structure daily observations, build data-collection habits, and create assessment artifacts (logs, drawing records, simple graphs). The project fosters observational skills, patience, scientific vocabulary, and basic experimental thinking—ideal for supplementing life-science units or independent science study.
