We have been learning all about the lifecycle of a butterfly. We got 5 tiny caterpillars from Insect Lore, we watched them eat and grow everyday until they were ready to form a chrysalis. We waited patiently, checking  every day for the butterflies to emerge. All 5 butterflies eventually emerged then we had to feed them. We mixed up some sugar for butterfly nectar and also sliced up an orange. When the butterflies were ready to be released, we took them outside and released them.
