Read the The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle and talk about how caterpillars become butterflies. Purchase chrysalises from a science store for the children to observe how caterpillars become butterflies. Once the butterflies have hatched, encourage the children to watch them for a few days before they set them free outside.
