Fantastic for little ones
So 5 little caterpillars arrived in their little tub. Tiny and not moving a lot but that's what the booklet said they'd be like. They grow so fast and become so active. Every morning my daughter would get up and go straight to them and excitedly see how big they'd gotten. It really is visible each day just how much they've grownAll 5 caterpillars became huge and then came the excitement of discovering the cacoons one morning as they'd transformed during the night. A friend lent us the net so we transferred the cacoons across, using the stand provided. It's a long week of checking if they've emerged each morning but the sheer joy and excitement once they start emerging is worth the wait. A few days of feeding them and getting them stronger before the magical task of releasing them. A fantastic project and a great memory maker! We will definitely be doing this again.

Responsible and educational
This company is very professional, responsible and makes a lot of effort to keep high welfare standards for them insects, which I love it. The Caterpillar triple the size in 24h, which we were so surprised. It's super educational, with clear instructions and so much information about the butterflies stages and details. Probably will do ladybirds after.

Fun and knowledge for the kids!
The kids were enthralled in looking after the catapillars and nurturing the beautiful butterflies 🦋 And especially keeping them for a couple of days before freeing them near the river!

Beautiful experience
We ended up getting 5 growing caterpillars but only 4 survived and turned into butterflies. None the less it was fascinating for the children to see a dead caterpillar and how its head turned red. Was an amazing experience for the children and they were able to see in real life all the things they had been reading about butterflies and more.

Probably have 5 live caterpillars
Do not bother paying for next day delivery. It takes a week, even if you pay for next day you won't get it.Good product. Double check delivery address because mine went to the post office. It's amazing to watch these caterpillars grow. They have doubled their size in 1 day! Give them some shade. Do not put on the window sill whatever you do.
