User Submitted Live Butterfly Garden Reviews (cont...)Date: 2008-06-20 A little deceptive When reading reviews before I bought this, none of them said that you had to include a check for $3 with the enclosed "coupon" to mail away for the caterpillars. It's not that I think that $3 is much to spend, or that it's an unfair price for shipping live caterpillars, but it's just the principle of it that I don't like. I thought that once we bought it then we were done spending. Why call it a coupon if it's really just an order form? Also, the butterfly habitat seems quite a bit smaller than I thought it was in the pictures on the box. They must have used some awfully small children in those pictures. We have yet to receive our caterpillars, since we just put the order form out in the mail today, and I'm sure that once we get them we'll have a good time with this product. Assuming that all goes well, that they don't arrive D.O.A., etc., I'm sure this will be a fantastic learning experience for my 4.5 year old daughter who loves insects. We're still optimistic that this will turn out to be a great product. Date: 2008-06-19 Great experience for kids and adults alike!! I bought two Butterfly Gardens; one for my godson and one for the after school program that I work for. My godson absolutely loved watching his butterflies come out of the cocoons and the children at the program, as well as the teachers, were all pretty amazed. I had some children that had seen this metamorphis take place already with other kinds of caterpillars, but this is truly a one of a kind experience!! Date: 2008-06-18 Butterfly Garden, the greatest children's gift! We have bought a number of Butterly Gardens and refill butterfly kits over the last few years, for our own kids, their classrooms, and birthday presents for friends. The butterfly experience has excited and inspired everyone (including the adults) who have been able to witness the metamorphosis. I can't recommend this highly enough! Date: 2008-06-17 Cool toy, but they leave out the catch.. gotta pay more $ I too thought it would include the caterpillars and food. The package I recieved included the mesh cage thing and a dropper for the food and instructions (for 15.00?) and to recieve the caterpillars you have to send away another $3.00 plus the stamp. the kicker for me was that i gave it to muy daughter as a present and i didn't find out until we open the package. Too late to return it, almost like they know that and depend on it. I still think it is a cool toy, but i do feel decieved, I wish they would just write that in the description. I will not be ordering again from them because of this false (not telling the whole truth) product listing.. Date: 2008-06-15 Butterfly pavilion HUGE, and perfect if you need to put in a plant that the caterpillars are enjoying eating so you can watch them grow and turn into a butterfly. Top opens up and it's so easy to get in and out of this pavilion. My girls love it, now they are housing a ton of ladybugs so it's got a whole bunch of possibilities :)
