Aug. 27, 2007 - Down the rabbit trail...

We are spending our week with butterflies (literally, as we have five painted lady caterpillars in a container on our dining room table)! 

We do plan on reading
Fun with Nature (Take-Along Guide)
Butterflies and Moths by George F. Fitcher
Where Butterflies Grow by Joanne Ryder
Are You a Butterfly? by Judy Allen
The Butterfly Alphabet by Kjell B. Sandved
A Place for Butterflies by Melissa Stewart
Usborne Beginners Caterpillars and Butterflies by Stephanie Turnbull
Waiting for Wings by Lois Ehlert
The Great Monarch Butterfly Chase by R.W.N. Prior
From Caterpillar to Butterfly by Deborah Heiligman
The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle

I hope to encourage Elijah to try drawing the lifecycle using the guide in Ralph Masiello's Bug Drawing Book (but if he's not interested, I'm not going to push it).

We also have Hands of A Child Buttefly Project Pack.  I'm adding a few things in with it, too.  Hopefully I'll have some pictures to post at the end of the week. 

Those are all the grand plans I have (other than going outside to find some butteflies). 

P.S.  Check out this video (my dh found it for us)
