Festival of Butterflies at Powell Gardens 2010

Every year we make a point to visit the Festival of Butterflies at Powell Gardens. My girls love seeing the tropical butterflies, native Missouri butterflies, and hundreds upon hundreds of Monarchs! The event is great family fun.

We went this weekend (you can still attend Aug. 13-15) and we had a great time! The girls made butterfly hats with antennae and butterfly feeders. We saw the entire life cycle of a butterfly (and moth) firsthand. Fancy Nancy presented storytime and led the Children's Parade, and we had a blast exploring the gardens and discovering Big Bugs throughout!

These are a few of the photos from our day at the Butterfly Festival:
