Butterfly

Yesterday, on Nana's birthday we were playing outside in the back yard (yes... we were in our pj's...) and there were so many beautiful butterflies, so we decided to take the cool opportunity to learn about them. We had a little lesson on what butterflies used to be (the kids still don't really get it, so if you have any suggestions on how to explain how a totally disgusting creepy crawly turns into the most beautiful insect on the planet, I am sooo open to them!) and then we made our own butterflies out of construction paper and straws.



After we finished making out butterflies we went in and decorated some ginger snaps so they matched our lesson.
