For May Day Fun Talk to Your Children About Butterflies:
Butterflies Types
Submitted by Paige
Using an air popper, make several batches of Butterflies. When the Butterflies has cooled off, have the children split the Butterflies up into several zip loc bags. Pour melted butter into each bag. Sprinkle a dry ingredient into the bags, close the top, and have your children shake it.
Some choices for dry ingredients are Cinnamon, sugar, dry ranch, dry cheese, garlic, etc. Have your children choose which one they like best and graph the results.
