Yesterday we had our Butterfly Life Cycle program. Big shout out to Taffy’s dad Mr. Tyler he studied biology and many other things and was so kind and wonderful to share his knowledge on Butterflies 🦋 with us. Plant a Seed and Read isn’t just about farming and planting, it also about our tiny helpers, the pollinators. The tiny hero’s of nature. We love learning about bugs, and insects especially about butterflies.
