Raising Butterflies

From Caterpillar to Butterfly🦋

In the spring we hatched painted lady butterflies from an Insect Lore kit. The hatching took about 3 to 4 weeks. We hatch in the spring to give the butterflies a better chance of surviving in the wild. The Life Cycle is such a fun process for the students to be able to witness.

Finally the day has come to allow these painted ladies to spread their wings and fly.

After releasing the butterflies the students drew pictures of the butterfly release.
