Caterpillars

My homeschooler is participating in a homeschool co-op science class. This week, the students received a habitat for bugs and insects and creepy things. At her brother's football game, she caught a mess of caterpillars and is taking her habitat very seriously, even getting up early to check on them.

My girl kept asking me what the caterpillars are saying, so I added an assignment: Make a list of things a caterpillar held captive in a bug habitat might say. Perspective taking. Love it!

We are still trying to figure out what kind of caterpillar we have in our habitat and what kind of butterfly or moth they may become. Love that, too!
