Would this be too frustrating to figure out for a 2 1/2 year old?

Maybe but it's a good pairing with the book which someone could read to the 2 1/2 year old and use it as a demonstration of a caterpillar turning into a butterfly even tho it doesn't really happen like that.

In what country is this made?

Gave it as a gift. Probably China like everything else these days. Although under license it was nicely made.
