Colourful flower friend

Wow, look, a butterfly is flying! With beautiful colours and velvety wings. It makes you happy just by looking at it. Dear butterfly, will you sit down somewhere? Then we can see how lovely you are.

Did you know that…

  • A butterfly starts as a caterpillar. The caterpillar eats lots of leaves until it’s full and then crawls into a cocoon. After a while, a beautiful butterfly emerges.

  • Butterflies have a straw-like mouth. With it, they drink nectar from flowers. Mmm, like flower lemonade!
     

  • Every butterfly looks different. With its own colours, spots, or stripes.

Which one do you think is the most beautiful?

how can you help butterflies?

Butterflies love flowers, the sun, and a little peace and quiet. Do you see one fluttering by? Stand still and maybe it will come closer! Want to make a butterfly treat? Place a dish of water with a few pebbles in it. Yummy sipping and a little rest: that’s how butterflies enjoy their holiday.
