Caterpillars

Grace has been learning about caterpillars and butterflies at school, her class has had butterfly “cages” with 5 caterpillars in each and have watched them go from caterpillar to cocoon to butterfly. Yesterday they released them outside.

This has led to all sorts of at home activities. From playing butterfly to drawing butterflies to building cocoons and pretending necklaces are caterpillars, you name it, she’s been doing it…She is very creative…
