Paradise Monarchs

What an amazing, beautiful experience watching our chrysalis' morph into beautiful Monarch Butterflies. The presentation is outstanding and the instructions are very clear. These will make great gifts for any age. And when they emerged, they didn't just fly away. They stayed in my wife's hand for minutes. It was beautiful.

The best! I got these as gifts for nurses who had cared for my son for decades. Great service guaranteed satisfaction, unique, and meaningful gift!

What a beautiful experience! Ordering process was so smooth! Owner, Justin, picked up immediately to answer my questions. He accommodated same day order which was just a 5 hour notice. Pick up was at a house in Ewa. The decor box, wood keychain, and the overall opening experience was opening like an high end item. Everything was so professionally made. Although the items may have been tossed around in the bag, the chrysalis kept intact. The live butterfly crawled onto finger for a good 20-30 seconds before flying away. It was a perfect moment. Justin explained the butterfly is best to keep its wings closed together in the flat box than fluttering in a cube box for its own well-being. Butterfly release was more time sensitive for live butterfly. Will be a returning customer again soon.

This was such a fun experience, for all ages! I bought a chrysalis for my cousin for her birthday and she loved it. I also bought one for myself, because I'm a kid at heart . And one for my friend wIt's so nice to appreciate the little things in life. Like watching the beautiful evolution of a butterfly. The customer service from Paradise Monarchs is amazing. Henry, the owner, is very responsive and available to answer any questions. The Chrysalis came in a cute little display box, and contained a personalized card with instructions and what to expect in the evolution process. For me, the releasing part was most fun and breathtaking to watch. It's an amazing and memorable experience overall. Would recommend!

What do you get for someone who already has enough toys, clothes, books, food, and things? A PARADISE MONARCH!!!I've tried to raise a butterfly from caterpillar before, and they eat so much, and they're super picky so unless you have a lot of crownflower leaves, it's hard to keep up with them. (But it's super fascinating watching them spin their little green crysalis) When you purchase a paradise monarch, it comes as a crysalis already on a raffia and packaged in a clear box all wrapped and ready to give. They even give you instructions on how to care for them & tell you which day the butterfly is going to come out, and it was accurate each time. I bought 2 the first time for Christmas for my nieces, and they loved the experience of releasing the butterflies, I had to go back and buy another one. My sister loved it because it didn't make a mess, require assembly, batteries or parental assistance like most toys or gifts for kids that age. It's fascinating even for adults, I mean how do you even go from a crawling green worm like thing to a winged orange and black flying insect? It blows my mind. Did you know that most caterpillars don't make it to butterfly stage? They get eaten by birds etc or don't successfully transform into a butterfly. We successfully released all 3 butterflies I got from Paradise Monarch. Highly recommend!

Great experience buying a chrysalis and watching my daughter throughout the week long experience. She was so excited to set her butterfly free. She named her Snickerdoodle. You can order through Instagram and communication is both great and easy. Pick up instructions easy to follow and COVID safe.

Super awesome experience to see the butterfly transform from the chrysalis that you can then release to help increase the monarch butterfly population. Unique gift for special occasions or just for yourself. Highly recommended. It's a good, education, fun experience for children and adults. Perfect for special events like wedding, anniversary, and birthday. The company promptly responds to emails and can try to accommodate request based on the date you want to gift the chrysalis.

I was lucky to have won a contest during covid last year for this butterfly kit. Pickup was not at the actual location but at paradise tubs location in Ewa beach for my pick up. I believe each Kit is approximately $30 which comes in a nice holder, instructions and a clear container with moss inside.My estimated arrival date was about 5 days after pickup. The index card shows you the different stages before emerging. Unlucky for me, it emerged early in the morning so I wasn't able to see it come out of its shell. We also named it butters and my butterfly was a female. It was very pretty in the box but I was definitely afraid of it. I used a stick to get it out and showed it to my dogs. We eventually released it out on our lanai shortly after and it was free to live its life.

Paradise Monarchs chrysalis/butterflies is such a beautiful gift to give to yourself and your loved ones. The first time my sister gifted me this as we were in search of a house, it was such a bittersweet moment. I have come to love butterflies and it hits so close to home as butterflies are spiritual creatures that I hold very dear to my heart especially after losing our father and my boyfriend's mother in 2017. So after that one gift, I purchased more & won a chrysalis from a giveaway that they were having. Each one, I'd give my butterflies a special name in Japanese which each carry a special meaning that I can always cherish in my heart. For 4x straight, they all have been girls. but trust me when I say that they can brighten any one's day. I do hope to have them on my special day/wedding whenever that will happen (*hint hint mr. boyfriend lol) because they will definitely something special to have each butterfly set free with special wishes made for us. Or maybe as a special party favor for a special occasion. So if you're stuck on what to gift that special someone or loved one, contact Henry and get yourself a chrysalis to capture the beauty of your very own butterfly to tell your wishes & hopes to as you set them free. Trust me, it's a bittersweet special moment to experience for yourself or truly gift someone.

My boyfriend gifted me a butterfly for my birthday, and I thought it was the most unique gift I've ever received. I LOVED it! After a small incident when the box was accidentally bumped and the chrysalis detached from the stick (my fault), I contacted Henry immediately, and he was SO supportive & helpful. I've never experienced a business owner with as much compassion and a calming nature as he had during the process of making sure my butterfly was going to be okay. All in all, a beautiful Monarch butterfly emerged, and it was so special to witness the beautiful process with my own eyes. I'd recommend this gift to anyone of any age as it is both super educational and rewarding. Support local & gift a loved one with this incredible experience!
