We have spent the last few weeks eagerly watching all our chrysalides darken in colour, then always seem to miss the butterfly hatching out. Although we successfully managed to film this on Friday, unfortunately for the children this amazing transformation happened about half an hour after they had all left for the day!
Many of our children have been totally absorbed in our caterpillars and chrysalides, arriving eagerly each morning to check on their progress. We can't wait to show them this little clip.
We have some wonderful observational drawings up on display in Kindergarten - come and have a look!
