Have You Thought About Easter March 31,2013…and Butterflies
It’s Time for Easter and Butterflies!
Do you own the book, The Flight of Orville Wright Caterpillar? Well, I have some exciting news for you!
Curriculum for The Flight of Orville Wright Caterpillar is Now Available…Free!
Curriculum has been created for the story, with music, guitar chords and a music video. Finally, it’s altogether in one place. The curriculum is free and and includes a craft, coloring pages, the story questions for the teacher and the opportunity to talk to your child or your Sunday School class about being born again.
Updated Info on Real Caterpillar Cocoons
The curriculum also includes links to real caterpillar cocoons for a dynamic lesson in nature…cocoon to butterfly. What an excellent gift for Easter, to be able to bring out the idea of becoming a new creation. The cocoons will bring about a genuine curiosity. How much better could it be to explain Jesus’ resurrection and the new birth!
When Should I Order the Butterfly Kit?
You’ll need to order at least 3 weeks before Easter. Deadline yourself for the first week of March 2013!
Painted Lady Butterflies
The cocoons produce Painted Lady Butterflies that can live indoors up to three weeks. Make it a Easter and butterflies year…order them in time for Easter, March 31, 2013, and it might be warm enough where you live to turn them loose outdoors (above 50 degrees). The website includes instructions for their keep and suggestions like: “Let you children hold the butterfly carefully in their hand to warm the butterfly.” Order soon for them to arrive and open in time for Easter!

Have you ever raised butterflies from caterpillars? What did you think about seeing them change? Leave your comments…we love them!
This is a wonderful idea for an Easter activity! My youngest daughters 2nd grade class raised butterflies. This activity really enchants the kids and they were so excited when it was finally time for the release party.

Linda,
Buy them for your home personally! You can’t beat having total control over who gets to see, touch and release. You can even let them go in your home for awhile if it’s too cool outside. Fun to see them flitting through your home…
What a wonderful idea! You know how much I love butterflies… I love the idea of adding value to your story by offering a complementary product. A brilliant pairing!

Lisa Ann,
Good to hear from you again! Who can resist a chance to watch the changes in nature right before their eyes…
I always feel a little annoyed when I read something like this and see its available in the US and not over here in the UK!

Kayla,
It’s possible they sell butterfly cocoons in the UK too. You’ll have to let me know about your butterflies in the UK!
