Each time we find a monarch caterpillar we bring it inside and place it in our safe butterfly net. We make sure the caterpillars have plenty of milkweed to eat until they are ready to begin the chrysalis stage. Then after 2 weeks a butterfly emerges and we have our butterfly release ritual. See the videos below for a peek into our release ritual. Thank you to the Junior League of Baton Rouge for selecting WHAM as a participant in the Painted Playground Project. Many Junior League volunteers and WHAM families joined together to spruce up our playground.
