Love Bug is currently 38.5 months old
This week we learned about butterflies. It was suppose to be bugs also...but we got really focused on butterflies, and that was plenty.
We are super excited because we are raising butterflies!!
We ordered a kit from Insect Lore
and also ordered the classroom refill kits from their website directly. We divided up the caterpillars between all of our tot school friends.
Love Bug and her siblings are raising 15 caterpillars!
TOTS TOGETHER!
This week we worked on our fine motor skills with our Scatterpillar game
Made AB patterns with some bug erasers (Love Bug is getting really good at AB and we've started adding ABB and AAB)
Learned how butterflies grow
Watched a Youtube video of butterflies growing
Had a butterfly snack (thank you pinterst)
Made cute butterfly glass hangings with clear contact paper and paper (thanks CH)
Love Bug's finished piece
Read the very hungry caterpillar
and then practice our fine motor again by stringing all the foods he ate
and learned how to take care of our caterpillars and help them grow into butterflies
We can't wait to see our butterflies, but we have several weeks still!!
We also took a field trip to a local Butterfly conservatory
So much butterfly fun!!
