This story teaches children about the days of the week, counting, and the life cycle of the butterfly and is an early childhood favourite in all around the world. It's a modern day classic that will be enjoyed for years to come. Being a teacher myself I know you'll appreciate having the individual pieces to help children in developing their math skills.
