The Very Hungry Caterpillar

Our children’s fascination with caterpillars and butterflies led us on a fabulous story book adventure as we explored the much loved Eric Carle book ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar.’ The children competently retold the story through dramatic play and drama, magnetic stories and finger puppets. Amazing artwork was created by the children telling the full story in picture form on the wall. They continue to stand and admire their work – retelling the story from memory and visual clues.
