Below are some pictures from some butterflies we hatched (is that even the right word). My Mom bought this kit that included a butterfly house. We sent away for the caterpillars. Once they arrived we got to watch them turn into butterflies. How fun!!!
These are the cocoons hanging before the caterpillars turned into butterflies. Of course I forgot to take pictures of the caterpillars before we started this, but they were there!
Here is our first butterfly.
After about a week we let them go. I told the kids it wouldn't be very nice to make the butterflies live in a cage their whole lives. Now they are out exploring the world! Now when Abby sees a butterfly she thinks it's one of ours coming to visit!!!
One after it was released hung out on our grass for a while.
