Our very hungry Caterpillars

This week we were lucky enough to inherit a swan plant with caterpillars, chrysalis and an egg and within just a few days the cycle had began. The little egg had hatched and a very small and very hungry caterpillar was munching away on the leaf. The next day we were so surprised at how much the little caterpillar had grown.
While Lucah was over washing his hands he noticed something changing. We gathered around and watched as our largest caterpillar wriggled and jiggled into a green chrysalis with beautiful gold spots. This week we are excited to do some writing about what we witnessed so watch this space!
