Where Children Are First

IN THE NEWS

 

Preschool students from McNinch Primary School watched the life cycle of the painted lady butterfly in an artificial habitat (a mesh enclosure).  They watched as each larva (caterpillar) became a chrysalis (pupa) and then an adult butterfly. While in this artificial habitat, all of the butterfly’s needs for food and shelter were met. The children fed them oranges and placed leaves & flowers for the butterflies to enjoy.  They then gathered in the yard at the front of the county office, and released their butterflies to their natural habitat
