Butterflies & Praying Mantis

Today, the kids held the butterflies and watched them fly. Some were too shy to hold the butterfly but most of the kids were excited to have it walk on their fingers.

Our praying mantises hatched out. The bug enclosure was full of hundreds of tiny praying mantises. It is amazing to see how many come out of just one egg mass- 10-400. The kids had a great time collecting tiny bugs outside to feed to them.
