Fun Concept: Science Kits and Toys

Obviously I didn't read the fine print because I thought my kit would have caterpillars in them, although I had to make them up later. Spooky scary stuff is honestly not my forte, but my kids loved it. I wish the guide was more understandable and kid-friendly for us newbies. I still have a habitat, but I think I will do without butterflies this year. On the other hand, all of our caterpillars have turned into butterflies! We even had one that obviously wanted to be our pet - he refused to leave

Pros
  • Stylish and Modern Design
Cons
  • Some Issues

I LOVE this project with my 4 year old daughter

LOVE this project with my 4 year old daughter. Not only did she learn a lot about the life cycle of butterflies, so did I! We had 6 butterflies and they all grew up and went free into the world! I thought it would be difficult for her to make them fly away, but she wanted them to explore the world and fly. The best part was that after she was released, they kept coming back and landing on her! She said they were grateful to her for taking care of them ♡ Two of them refused to keep their hand…

Pros
  • Practical thing
Cons
  • No productivity

Terrible customer service (don't waste your money)

I received my order with adult caterpillars that formed a pupa in two days. My children have not yet experienced the growth phase of small caterpillars described in this article. I called and got no answer from the company. After waiting 10 minutes I sent an email and never received a reply. Your website says someone will get in touch with you within a day. All the dolls were made at the bottom of the bin so I tried calling and asking if that was ok. Again there is no answer. I followed the…

The kids loved it! best in science kits and toys

Bought this for my 10 year old daughter who loves all things nature. It was wonderful! A self-contained cupcake with tiny caterpillars that grew in a matter of days with no maintenance. It was incredible to see! They made their cocoons as expected and beautiful butterflies hatched from them! All 5 hatched great! The instructions are very simple and all that is really required is to open the cup and place the lid with the cocoons in the habitat. Just be forewarned, make sure you order this…

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • No instructions

Great experience for kids

If you buy this kit through the real website, shipping will be charged so it makes sense to buy it from Revain if you already have Prime. I would recommend buying the real kit without the coupon to avoid the additional shipping cost of the worms. The kit was very informative and easy to use, it even has many answers to frequently asked questions. I believe the time frame for hatching was around four weeks so plan accordingly. Of the five worms I received, all five hatched into beautiful…

Pros
  • Sturdy finish
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. DO NOT ORDER TRACKS!

I ordered a habitat for butterflies for the house, I'm a teacher and I have it at school, but with quarantine I can get it in addition. This habitat is poor. The tip only opens 1/2 of the zipper which is inconvenient when placing the doll or feeding. Very little freedom of movement. I also had to order all other necessary parts for an extra charge! Nothing happens! Even worse. When I received the caterpillars, three of them were dead and two had pupated in less than 24 hours. Don't let my kids…

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • I don't like it very much, everything is fine

Amazing set to see the work of God

It was a very nice project that my little sister and I did. We enjoyed watching it. I ordered a kit and then there is a code to redeem the tracks. It took me about 7 days to receive the tracks after ordering. You get 5 butterflies with the set. They offer you another 5 for a fee of around $15.00. We did this because you get 5 but you may not pass all 5. Of the 10 we received, 6 survived to be released. When the caterpillars arrived, it took them another 10 days to transform into a cocoon…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Modern

Great kit but watch out for hidden costs!

This is a really good kit but beware of hidden costs! The price of the kit does NOT include any tracks. When you buy a kit you get a code to buy tracks for free, but you still charge about $5 for shipping and handling, plus more if you want tracks delivered in 2 days, which is what they recommend that your tracks don't die on the go. I decided not to pay more and opted for regular shipping and my tracks arrived in perfect condition within 3 days. If you want another batch of tracks, you need to

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Volume
