Botanica

On Sept. 17th, we enjoyed our field trip to Botanica.  It was a perfect day!  The staff at Botanica do such a great job at teaching the children about Monarch butterflies.  We also enjoyed watching the butterfly life cycle in our room with our butterfly larvae.  Our Painted Lady butterflies began emerging last Friday - and we got to see one come out! They're very quick, so it's easy to miss.  On Monday when we got to school, they had all "hatched."  We enjoyed watching this miraculous transformation!
