Bugs of the World – Butterflies

Originally uploaded by Greensboro Public Library

At Bugs of the World this week we learned about the Monarch butterflies who travel from Canada to Michoacan, Mexico. We learned a little about the people who share their mountain homes each autumn with these butterflies. We also made tie-dyed coffee filter butterflies, enjoyed a snack and watched a short film.  Here is our swarm!

At Bugs of the World this week, we learned about spiders and heard an Anansi story from the Ashanti people of Africa. We then made our very own Anansis that could fly. Afterwards, we watched a short Anansi film.
