\n“It is amazing! Our previous education consists of pictures, and here children see how chrysalis turns into a butterfly before their eyes and this magic occurs right now, in real life! They will remember it for life and I’m sure, they will treat all living with love and respect \u2014 Tatiana Kurukina shared impressions. \u2014 It is very important, most of present children lives in big cities, they lack real communication with the nature.”<\/p>\n
