  1. I loved teaching my kindergartners about butterflies. It was one of my favorite units!

    Here is a craft idea I got from Martha Stewart last week. It is a piggy bank out of a soda bottle.

  3. Butterfly, Butterfly is a fav at our house (might have something to do with the main character's name...but the illustrations are beautiful!) Always glad for book recommendations!

  4. I LOVE the craft.
    I have to recommend The Butterfly Alphabet. From Amazon's description, "Magnified photos reveal letters and numbers among the patterns on butterflies' and moths' wings" You have to see it.
