Monarch butterfly anatomy board

Take a closer look at the incredible details of a butterfly with our Butterfly Anatomy Board , a hands-on nature resource designed to inspire curiosity, observation and a deeper understanding of the natural world.

The beautifully illustrated timber board introduces children to key parts of a butterfly, including the antennae, compound eye, head, thorax, abdomen, forewing, hindwing and wing veins.

The set also includes 3 round acrylic magnified discovery pieces, featuring close-up details of the butterfly. Children can investigate the intricate patterns and structures of the wing veins, compound eye and abdomen, then connect these magnified details back to the anatomy board.
