Northwest of Denver, in the neighboring suburb of Westminster, is the Butterfly Pavilion, with loads of interactive exhibits designed for kids between the ages of 2 and 12. The tropical conservatory houses more than 1,200 live butterflies. This climate-controlled area is kept at 80 percent humidity and between 70 and 90 degrees — a welcome respite from the dry Colorado air! Kids can watch butterflies emerge from their cocoons and also spot the turtles, frogs, fish and hermit crabs that make their home here.
