Fowers for the Butterflies

Yes we cannot get away from talking about butterflies, moths, and dragonflies!  This has been a great opportunity for us to  engage in other subjects.  We draw all of the different insects and now when we draw, we can tell you where the butterfly is, where the flowers are, what color they are, how many there are, what they are doing, and we even spell and write our names on the back of our papers! ;0) 

Not bad for being only 2 years old!!
  We have been talking about what colors the flowers are that the butterflies are on in all of our books.  We know that butterflies like flowers, but we still think that caterpillars AND butterflies eat grass! ;0)
As we are continuing to investigate what the butterflies eat, we think it is the PERFECT time for us to create our very own butterfly garden outside in our playground!
Starting next week, the children can bring in his/her very own plant for our garden.  We have emailed the families in our class about the garden, and there are links included to help everyone determine what they would like to bring for the garden.

Here is a sample of what we do when we start talking about butterflies.........We all like to draw, while Aidan takes the book, and talks and talks and talks about what is in the book!
He is still convinced, however, that caterpillars hatch out of BALLS, not eggs! ;0)    lol
