Butterfly Tree House Part II WE HAVE BUTTERFLY’S

Or as our little girl says “buperfies”!  You can only imagine the excitement in the house today.  The caterpillars formed there chrysalis (caccoon’s) on Friday.  I thought it would take longer for the butterflies to appear.  So I had not started putting flowers in the tree house yet.  At noon my niece tried to open the tree house and I instructed her not to.  At 3pm when my sister-in-law and nephew came to get my nice we had 3 butterflies.  After my niece went home we made an “emergency” trip to the grocery to buy flowers and oranges.  You put a sugar an water concoction on the flowers and just lay the orange slices out.  We fixed up our house then went to TaeKwonDo and came home to find the butterflies ‘munching” on there supper.

My daughter is so excited and the amount of words!!!!  She called one Grandma an clearly said “caccoon,,buperfies,,,,eat”  Her grandma was so excited to hear the words!

So I truly endorse this product.  They said they guarantee that 3 of the 5 caterpillars would form butterflies.  We had 4.  We may not be so lucky next time.  However, this is taping in to speech for my daughter, plus my son totally enjoyed the experience and learned a lot!  He reminded me that we needed to get oranges for them and insisted on getting an entire bag.

Ok,,,enough of the commercial :-)  We plan to keep them for a few days and release them before the weekend.  My butterfly bushes are in full bloom so hopefully that will make a good home for them.
