Summary:

Age Range: All - Very young children may enjoy aspects of this. Non-readers will need assistance. (All children with parental supervision.) This website provides a free video of the complete metamorphosis of a monarch butterfly.

Description:

When you watch the video you�ll see a compilation of close-up photographic images providing a chronological transition that moves through these stages of growth:

The movie is about 15 minutes long, so plan your visit accordingly.
