Plumping up.
They are hairy too. The lid is sealed so don't get grossed out. They can't escape. You can pull the lid off later when they create their pupa to the top. There's a protective sheet under the lid. And once they are in that stage, they can't get you. Ew.

ReplyDeleteWhat a neat thing for your children; I remember doing something similar in girl scouts. Great ku!
ReplyDeleteEwwww. Hairy catepillars! Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteRaising butterflies is so exciting for kids! It looks like you'll have lots of fun. :)
ReplyDeletethis is soooo fun. thanks for letting us watch and share it with you.
ReplyDeletereminds me of my
ReplyDeleteclassroom days ... observation
teaches many things
conversation builds
understanding sometimes missed
using just 'textbooks'
I'm sure you'll have fun with this one ;--)
Hugs and blessings,
Wow. I had forgotten how fast they grow from last year's pictures.
ReplyDeleteI know y'all are having fun with this.
My son's preschool class just did this and then they set them free! Nature is amazing!
ReplyDeleteSo much better than just reading about them in a book!
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!
Did you get this off that commercial that's on Nick, Jr? I am so tempted to get them for my kiddo, too. Keep us posted on their growth.
ReplyDeleteI went to your link - and saw that people release them at weddings (etc)
ReplyDeleteI hope you take pictures when yours decided to take flight.
That reminds me of how much I used to enjoy playing with caterpillars when I was little. I didn't even know until VERY recently that there are some that will sting. Is that right?
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend :)
