Story Highlight: Caterpillar Crunch

One morning the kids and I were headed over to the "school house" when the children discovered a caterpillar crawling around! I was so amused to realize that they were actually disgusted by the little guy. After a moment of observation they decided it looked too "spikey." (We had recently seen a "fuzzy" one at the church garden that perhaps had a friendlier appearance.) Well, a moment later we herded into our little classroom for circle time and I forgot all about Mr. Spike expecting to hear nothing more on this topic! However, during break while the children were all outside to play, I met with Tia and a very sad frown. She very pathetically said, "Momma, that caterpillar is never gonna be a butterfly." I said, "Oh, honey, well, of course it will! We just have to be patient! Then quite unexpectedly she said, "But...I stepped on it."

Then I realized: The next time I engage in a scientific discussion with one of the kids I probably ought to gather a bit more information. (This event took place on 8/12/09.)
