Complete Metamorphosis is one of nature's mysterious wonders -- you have to see it to believe it... and now your students can! Our Metamorphosis kit represents each stage of the butterfly/moth life cycle. From a small egg on a leaf to a caterpillar; and then from a cocoon (which is REAL!) to a beautiful butterfly or moth, young entomologists will be excited to make a metamorphosis card of their own!

Ages 4 and up.
