The Caterpillar Project: Day One
Madelyn is beyond excited about this project. She wanted to call everyone immediately today when we checked the mail and saw that yes indeed, the caterpillars have arrived. For Christmas she received a butterfly kit in which you send off for some caterpillars (with a $6.00 check of course). When they arrive (in a special container), you watch for them to turn into cocoons and then place them in a butterfly cage and wait for butterflies to be born! The whole process is supposed to take about 3 weeks. I have no idea if it will be successful or not!! We thought it would be fun to share this project on the blog....we'll let you know when we have butterflies!
