Start of Summer

The last day of pre-k was a Wednesday. Thursday I took the boys (and my neighbor's baby) on a field trip to celebrate the start of summer. They chose The Butterfly Pavilion.
Both boys held the tarantula, Rosie. This was Izee's first time! Kids are supposed to be at least 3 before they hold the spider but the guy said Izee was close enough.

Then we headed into the butterfly room.

(Look! A Butterfly!)

(Caterpillars too! It is hard to see but there are little green caterpillars on the leaf the boys are holding.)

("Why are the butterflies eating sponges?")

(The butterfly room also has the carnivorous plants . . . )

(and turtles . . . )

(and monkeys! Ha Ha. Just kidding. )

Our final stop was the play area.

(Riding a caterpillar.)

(Feeding the caterpillars: You throw the colored leaves (aka bean bags) into the caterpillars' mouths.)

(Izee liked spinning the wheel. I explained that it was a game but he didn't care. He just wanted to spin the wheel.)

(Kae LOVED the zip line. He did it a ton of times!)

We all had a really fun time! Yay for summer!
