For our butterfly unit, we ordered caterpillars so we could observe their metamorphosis first hand! The boys LOVED it! We got 6 caterpillars in the mail that we watched until they formed chrysalids on the lid of their jar! We then transported them, very carefully, to the butterfly "garden" while those things were shaking like CRAZY! We then watched and waited until we had 5 beautiful painted ladies! One did not make it, unfortunately! We took them outside and released them last night! The boys really enjoyed it... and so did we!

Sounds like fun! Glad they had so much fun with them. I know my kids would love to get a kit and watch them transform.
