Butterflies...

One of my parents in my room asked me if I would be okay if she bought a kit for my class to watch butterflies grow. It is so cool to watch the kids get so excited about their butterfly! Some of them have named them...they come in every morning to see how much they grew over night! It has been so cool! I have great parents!

We were not to touch the caterpillars with our hands to put them in their cups...so we used a paint brush to scoop them up...

The caterpillar would get off the brush...it would take a couple minutes because they move so slow...After everyone had a home...we wrote the names of the owners on the cups...the light brown stuff at the bottom of the cups is the food for the caterpillars. These little guys are so cute...and the kids are so cute being the mommy and daddy to them...Can't wait to see the kids watch them as they grow...this is so fun!!!
