Butterfly News

Latest News!

We are on 19th Butterfly with 3 more chrysalis' to go. There is also one extremely hungry caterpillar who hasn't decided to form in the J-Shape just yet.

The BIGGEST surprise is  we had a very tiny Chrysalis which emerged into a tiny butterfly just slightly larger than a quarter. What else makes this butterfly special is it is completely black and white, missing the bright orange colors, but still identical wing pattern as the others.

We are so curious about this butterfly, we called the Zoo to speak to an Lepidopterist (A person who studies butterflies and moths) and he is getting back to us shortly with some answers!

We miss you!

Summer Vacation Already!? 


We hope you are enjoying the beautiful weather and summer vacation. We miss our class already! We are teaching during in the month of July, if you are attending our summer camp programs we will see you around!

Since you have been gone we wanted to update families on our classroom animals. 4 Ducklings hatched and have been taken to a farm with pigs and goats.




Our Butterflies have repeated the Life Cycle! During the last week of school the children said goodbye to the caterpillars and into this week the caterpillars are forming into a chrysalis. There are 12 chrysalis' and almost 10 more caterpillars munching away, getting larger and larger each day!


Feel free to reach out or come in for a visit, we will be around all July.
