Butterfly

Following VBS we made our first trip to the library this summer.  It was an exciting one.  Nate discovered Nate the Great Books!

Then we went to their program sponsored by the Natural Science Museum, all about butterflies.  Nate was all over it learning how to plant butterfly attracting plants, letting catterpillars crawl all over him, and learning how to hold butterflies in a non-harmful manner.  Rissa was a little slower to warm up but cannot stop talking about it now that we are home.

   

Then that evening, Nate caught two frogs on our front porch.  It was a pretty exciting animal day for the kids (maybe not so much for the animals!).
