The "idea" of the Live Butterfly Garden is a wonderful one, as long as the caterpillars arrive when the customer requests! We were unable to order the "free" caterpillars online, so we sent in the order form via snail mail. When I contacted the company after the request date, I was told that they must have been "lost in the mail"! I have now requested that the replacement caterpillars be delivered on 8-24-09.
Meanwhile, we arrived home from our two-week vacation, to a container of dead caterpillars! This has NOT been a F-U-N experience for our child! We can only hope & pray that the caterpillars we requested, arrive on the 24th (alive and well)!

I'm sitting here watching our five butterflies in their Butterfly Garden! Two weeks ago today, we received our jar of five caterpillars. They ate the nutritional medium included in the jar and doubled in size daily. Four days after the caterpillars arrived, the first of them began its transformation into a chrysalis. By the following day, we had five chrysalids. I actually watched one evening as a caterpillar became a chrysalis before my eyes! My children (ages 3 and 7) have really enjoyed observing the caterpillars' transformation into butterflies--and we did see two emerge from their chrysalids. We will release the butterflies in the next few days. Then we'll order some more caterpillars! Fantastic product.

We were hesitant that the coupon for free caterpillars would work, particularly since we live in the desert and mail gets very hot -- but Insect Lore shipped them immediately after we mailed the coupon and $3 check. They arrived in good shape, all 5 turned into chrysalides and butterflies emerged from each. It worked exactly as advertised and has been great fun and educational! Highly recommended.

This is the greatest idea ever! See, I'm a kid with low self-esteem. I get bullied all the time and I'm afraid to talk to girls. There's really been no cure for problems like these, until now!
With Live Butterfly Garden, I can snag innocent butterflies from their comfortable habitat and force them to live a miserable life in a little confined cage net thing.
My, how the tables have turned! Now I'm the one bossing others around! Fly my underlings, fly! Huh, you're sleeping?! Lets see how sleepy you are when I vigorously shake your cage!
It's really empowering bossing around these butterflies. Although this doesn't change my school situation in the slightest, I'm the master of my own domain come the weekend!

We got our butterfly garden with the coupon to send in at our convenience for the larvae. It was a gift for my 7-year-old, but the 3-year-old loved it as well. All five larvae turned into chrysali and then butterflies without problems. All five were successfully released and are staying near our flower garden. Our experience with this product was wonderful, and we are likely to purchase it ourselves in the near future.
