The Bennett's shared their butterfly pavilion with us, along with a coupon for free caterpillars! We sent away for them and they arrived in the mail right after Mac's birthday. Each of the kids have their own cup to observe. After a few days, it was incredible to see how much bigger they got! The kids were loving it! After about a week, they made their way to the top of the container, hanging by the lid, and slowly making their way into the chrysalides. We moved them carefully into the boxes inside the pavilion, and about a week and a half later, the Painted Lady butterflies began to emerge! We enjoyed them for a few days and then let them go into Nana and Bub's backyard (many more flowers!) The kids loved exploring it all and definitely want to do it all again!
