The Nursery have a collection of caterpillars and have been watching them grow. The caterpillars are growing quickly and soon will be ready to move onto the next transformation of their life. The children are learning about the life cycle of a caterpillar. The children have been learning some key words that identify each stage the caterpillar will take.   You may have heard some of the following words at home: egg, caterpillar (or larva)  and chrysalis (or pupa).
