Live Butterfly Garden: Teaching Children About Nature

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

Children love to learn, especially if it is through doing. Science is a very important aspect of our life so teaching children science is important. Taking a walk with your child is a very good way to teach them about science and nature. Stop and look at the animals building their homes or the frogs changing from tadpoles to frogs.

Children love interesting things and they love to see new things so the more interesting you make science and nature the more they are going to remember. The live butterfly garden is my favorite way to teach children about nature.

A live butterfly garden can open up a whole new world to children. They can watch a caterpillar turn into a butterfly and then set it free.

One of my friends buys her nieces a live butterfly garden every year. The girls love to watch them change from caterpillars to butterflies and then about three days after the butterflies emerge from their cocoon they all get together and make a big production about setting them free.

Her niece’s are not only learning about the nature of butterflies but they are learning a wonderful lesson about letting go of the things they love. Plus they will have the happy memories for a lifetime.

Science and nature are a very big part of our lives. Children are like sponges and they love to learn through action. You can easily teach your child about nature and science by going on outings to parks and ponds. Show your child how the birds are collecting twigs for their nest or how the tadpoles are going to transform to frogs.
