Interactive learning projects and lessons are enchanting and very effectively capture a child's imagination and attention, allowing them the full benefit of hands on learning. Teachers are bringing this learning concept into the classroom and home schooling parents have been practicing it for years. It is highly effective and the lessons learned serve to imprint the knowledge upon young minds so that they will not forget. Butterfly and Nature Gift Store has a wide selection of learning aids such as ant farms and butterfly kits that will help children learn about nature. Their large selection of educational kits gives plenty from which educators can choose.

The Butterfly and Nature Gift Store announces their brand new butterfly kits and ant farms. Teachers and home schooling parents can enjoy the benefits of incorporating these highly effective learning aids into their lessons. Many of the kits include live caterpillars that students can watch transform into beautiful butterflies. The ant farms include live ants that students can observe creating tunnels and colonies. The lessons here can incorporate not only valuable science lessons but also lessons on life, family units, community and transformations. Students can also gain an appreciation of nature and learn that there is so much more in the big "circle of life."

The ant farms at Butterfly and Nature Gift Store offer projects that are not only fun, but educational as well. They give children the opportunity to observe certain ant behavior such as chamber making and tunneling. Students have the opportunity to see different classes of ants doing their various jobs such as feeder ants gathering food and worker ants digging. They can learn important lessons about how ants are very clean and remove their refuse away from their homes and tunnels. They also move their dead in this manner. This can lead to very productive discussions on the scientific and biological aspects of ants, but also of communities, organizations and teamwork.
