We have so enjoyed observing the life cycle of a butterfly over the last few weeks. Each classroom had about 4 caterpillars to watch as they ate and became big caterpillars. Then, they crawled to the top of the container to make their J-shape and eventually formed their chrysalis. Once all the caterpillars had formed their chrysalis, we moved them into our butterfly net in the lobby and patiently waited for our butterflies to appear! Fortunately, all of our caterpillars turned into butterflies and now comes the fun part of letting them go! Take a look at all the fun:
