Plot[]
The Little Einsteins go on a quest to get a lost caterpillar back home. Luckily, the caterpillar was safe and healthy enough to transform into a Monarch butterfly. The group hears about a grand family party (based off real Monarch migration) and they were invited, except for their butterfly. However, after searching in four butterfly mailboxes, they were able to find the right invitation. In the ending, the Little Einsteins and the butterfly visit Mexico where thousand of other Monarch butterflies rest.
