2 Corinthians 5:17 Anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! (I thought this Bible reading was perfect for the butterfly life cycle)
Butterfly Life Cycle Snack
Ingredients: lettuce and marshmallows (eggs on a leaf), celery, peanut butter, pretzels, green olives (caterpillar), lasagna noodles (chrysalis), gum drops (butterfly)
This is the life cycle chart that I created on a large piece of paper. After we prepared each part of the life cycle, we placed them on the correct part of the circle.
"Eggs on a Leaf"- marshmallows on lettuce
"Caterpillar"- spread peanut butter on celery, break pretzels for the legs, green olives for the eyes. The caterpillar represents Jesus here on Earth.
"Chrysalis"- lasagna noodle wrapped around the caterpillar. The chrysalis represents the tomb. |
"Butterfly"- peanut butter to hold the gumdrop to the pretzel. The butterfly represents the resurrection into Heaven.
Friends came to help us do the snack! |
It took a lot of concentration...and eating:) |
Finished Product!
