We have Chrysalis'!

Our itty-bitty caterpillars have been eating, molting their skin, hung upside down in a "J" form, and now they are in their chrysalis! 
 
 
They are sleeping inside their cozy house for a few more days. 
Room 5 thinks we will have beautiful butterflies by next week!
It is pretty exciting to witness the life cycle of a butterfly! 
I bet every househould is learning a lot of vocabulary words, too!
