Life Cycle of a butterfly. Watch a video of the life cycle for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3o_nE1X014U  or https://www.bbc.co.uk/teach/class-clips-video/how-caterpillars-change-into-butterflies-no-narration/zn4rkmn and discuss the various stages. The book ‘A Very Hungry Caterpillar’ is also a lovely book to share. If you have some paint at home you might also like to make a paint blob butterfly by painting on one side of a piece of paper and folding it over to create a symmetrical pattern.
