Our caterpillars have arrived!!! We have five little caterpillars that will transform into beautiful Painted Lady Butterflies in about 17 days. The children are so excited! We have been keeping a class diary about our little fuzzy friends. We have named them...Captain Jack Sparrow, Anabella, DeeDee, Karly, and Herbie. We gave each one a unique voice and characteristic which has been very entertaining. We are reading books about butterflies and insects and watched a really cool song/video about Metamorphosis. I hope the children are sharing their new knowledge about insects with you. They seem to be soaking up the science!
If you have a chance to go to the public library and check out some books about insects, especially butterflies, I bet your child would be thrilled!

Happy Insects!
