Camden got this butterfly treehouse for his birthday. We sent in for the caterpillars by mail. Once they came it took about 10 days or so for the caterpillars to turn into butterflies. They say you can keep them in the butterfly treehouse for up to a month. We kept our butterflies for about 3 whole days! I felt bad that the butterflies were living in this small little net house when they could have the beautiful outside to explore. I also was also afraid we would kill the butterflies. You have to feed them things like sliced up oranges or watermelon or fresh cut flowers with sugar water sprinkled on top. That was just to much responsibility! So Camden and I took the butterflies outside and released them into the beautiful world!
Camden held each butterfly (there were 5) before he let them go he said "bye, bye butterfly" and off they would go. He loved watching the butterflies fly away.
