OBSERVING THE CYCLE OF A BUTTERFLY!!!!

Have you ever observed a life cycle of a butterfly???


Let's observe!!! (This experiment needs at least a month)


Materilals:


Ice-cream Tub


Pencil


Caterpillar (You can purchase them from some shops)


Leaves


Twigs


Instructions

Poke a few holes in the big ice-cream tub, with the help of the pencil.

Now put a few twigs into the ice-cream tub, and put  the caterpellar into the tub.

Now put a few fresh leaves.

Keep on changing the leaves everyday and also see the changes in the caterpillar.

Once, the caterpillar changes into a cacoon check more regulary.

After 7-10 days the cacoon will change into a butterfly or a moth.

Release the insect after it has transforned into a butterfly or a moth.


If it does not change into a butterfly or a moth, you would have to try the experiment all over again.
