Butterfly Paradise
September 16th, 2009 | Author: Shannon
On Monday, the Little Bear Daycare took a field trip to The Farmer’s Daughter’s Butterfly Pavilion.
The pavilion entrance was decorated beautifully with flowers and this cut-out caterpillar.
Inside were tons of flowers and milkweed.
We noticed this caterpillar shaking out of its caterpillar skin to become a chrysalis.
Butterflies, caterpillars and crysalis’ were everywhere.
One chrysalis had turned black (transparent) and the butterfly was about to emerge.
While we were there it did! Here’s the butterfly drying its new wings ready to take flight.
The children had a blast.
Jeremiah had so much fun, he needed a break!
So, we took a wagon ride.
To the raspberry patch!
And picked an afternoon snack.
The butterfly pavilion is open from 10 am to 4 pm daily. The last butterfly release will be on October 4th during the harvest festival. Call 401-792-1340 or check out their webpage for more information.
