He wanted to rest in the flowers.... (left corner of flower basket)



So neat....




It isn't everyday that you can hold a butterfly...





It makes you giggle....






My turn, my turn....








One last drink of a fresh orange.


After we let our butterflies go, we ended the day at the park being silly.






The Thanksgiving Point Barn

Our last field trip of the year is at The Farm Country at Thanksgiving Point. We got to see lots of farm animals and baby ones too. And... don't forget the pony ride.















Great memories!!

All about May

We went outside and made Tye Die preschool shirts. It was messy, it was fun, it was worth it!! Look at how darn cute they turned out.

Butterflies

During our butterfly metamorphosis lesson,
we made a pretty butterfly craft.














Be very careful the wings are fragile, just like a real butterfly.




















April brought us......

This is what our caterpillars and their chrysalis looked like. It is a Painted Lady Caterpillar.
It will turn into a Painted Lady butterfly.


In April we received our caterpillars in the mail.
4 tiny little caterpillars.
They munched and munched and munched.
Until they grew into adult caterpillars in just a few days.

This is a picture of the empty cocoons and you can see 2 of the new butterflies.




Before they were butterflies. They were these huge caterpillars!




Watching the caterpillars....






Peek-a-boo!
