toddler time: happy 50th birthday to The Very Hungry Caterpillar!
i could not let the 50th anniversary of the publication of this iconic book go by unnoticed. i love everything by Eric Carle but The Very Hungry Caterpillar is so beloved. i have done many programs starring the VHC but here is one more....Mystery Box: Inside our polka dotted box, we found The Very Hungry Caterpillar! And he is wearing a birthday crown! A few days ago, he had a birthday so can we sing Happy Birthday to him?
The VHC is 50 years old WOW! I love the cute little paper crown I made him and decorated with sparkly star stickers! You can find the free printable HERE and just adjust the size for whatever project you are working on.
Books We Read:
The Very Hungry Caterpillar – Carle
Flannel Board: Caterpillar Cupcake Hide and Seek
i found this cute printable on The World of Eric Carle's FB page & i love it. i just laminated it & used sticky velcro dots.
I’m looking for a caterpillar,
We’re playing hide and seek.
Is he behind the BLUE cupcake?
Lets take a peek!
continue until you find the VHC!
Prop Songs:
The VHC loves cupcakes but he also loves fruit!
I passed out "fruit" to all the kids from my green basket and we did:
Hold your fruit UP
hold your fruit DOWN
hold your fruit and turn around!
Hold your fruit UP
hold your fruit DOWN
put your fruit on the ground.
Do You Want To Feed A Caterpillar?
(tune: Do You Know the Muffin Man)
Do you want to feed a caterpillar, feed a caterpillar, feed a caterpillar
If you want to feed a caterpillar, he wants something RED!
(or PINK or YELLOW etc)
Kids LOVED feeding the caterpillar I made from a cardboard box and a plastic container! the "fruits" are eggs from OTC.
Craft: Paper Plate Caterpillar Artwork
this was a last minute idea after i realized that the Paper Loop Caterpillar craft that I'd been prepping all week had been done in June and it seemed a little bit too early to do a repeat. So i cut caterpillar coloring pictures for the kids to color and paste onto a large paper plate. then we decorated with our scented dot art markers to make them really special! a great purchase from Lakeshore Learning BTW! the kids just love them and they smell amazing!
Two nice sized groups this week and a super fun theme!
