Fun With Butterflies



Last year we purchased one of these Butterfly Garden Habitats that came with live caterpillars. We got to watch them eat, get bigger, turn into cocoons and eventually turn into beautiful butterflies. It was such a fun activity for the kids! My 3 year old LOVED watching them grow. 


The kit I ordered was from Amazon and came with two cups of 5 caterpillars each. So we had a total of TEN caterpillars. They were so active and fun to watch over the week. 

 

I highly recommend trying this kit out. It was a fun activity and she learned so much doing so. It also gave her a "responsibility" in making sure her caterpillars and butterflies were taken care of.  It gave her something to look forward to everyday.


Have you experienced having your own caterpillars that turn into butterflies? It really is a fun activity.
