Story Time: Caterpillars and Butterflies

I paired Eric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar with Caterpillar's Wish by Mary Murphy. Then we looked at our Cup of Caterpillars from Insect Lore, and read Butterflies by Mari Schuh.

This was my first time with the Cup of Caterpillars, and the kids (and me!) have loved it! I will definitely do it again next year.

Our craft was a Magic Scratch Very Hungry Caterpillar ornament from Oriental Trading, and we used our matching puppet.

We did this program last year with a Very Hungry Caterpillar necklace for the craft.

I've also done a Very Hungry Caterpillar bulletin board in the past.
