Last summer my kids and I studied the life cycle of ladybugs. It was fascinating to witness the metamorphosis process in a small dome designed just for this purpose: grow from larvae to pupae to ladybugs.
Final stage: Released and ready to live the wild life
Larvae stage. 
Pupae stage. They stick and hang like this for days during the metamorphosis. They leave behind a dry shell. 
Ladybugs. Spots got darker and brighter over time.
Thank you City Sonnet for hosting this fun challenge!

The way you are teaching them Science is the coolest way to learn!!!! Have a great time with this year teachings.
Thank you for your encouragement!! It’s a learning process for me too. I was always wary of science in school but now that I have the freedom to study it in real life it’s not bad at all. I just hope that my kids are learning through it all…always the worry of a homeschooling mom.
I hope you are well and enjoying the warmer weather! Always so good to hear from you. Your smiles are the best.
