Surprise Butterfly Diary adds a new twist to the standard children’s diary. It is a beautiful pink and purple diary with a fairy and butterflies on the cover. It comes complete with a marker and clip for keeping everything together. What makes this diary truly unique is the butterfly that comes with it. To begin you and your child open the book to the first page and insert the thin wispy butterfly. They then close the book and pull the orange tab on the bottom of the book. This is attached to a string and once the string is fully extended you then open the book again. As you open the cover of the diary your butterfly sails up in the air. Children were enchanted with this butterfly feature and parents felt that the excitement of playing with it could lead to them wanting to write in the diary on a regular basis. Early reports were that kids did keep coming back and were getting into the idea of recording their experiences and thoughts of the day.
