Summer Science Project Almost Complete

We have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of the Monarch Butterfly in our Butterfly habitat or as I like to refer to it, our buttitat.





Last night it got very dark, during my insomnia I took more pictures of it, and just a few minutes ago it hatched! and is currently drying his/her wings in its buttitat, until we can release it out into the world of real flowers and no sugar water.

Do your kids have share time at school or do you home school?
Those pictures would be great to share, they are "wicked awesome"!

I don't homeschool, although I have thought about it...but I just supplement a lot of stuff at home. I have one that is a real science bug, which is not a USA priority in Elementary schools, so I try to keep her interested.

They do have a share time thing...They would probably love to bring this in. Thanks!
