Directions to make Caterpillar; Glue 4 pompoms to the back of your clothes pin. Once dry, glue on wiggly eyes. Directions for food print out; Allow (or assist) children in cutting out food shapes from the image provided. Directions for play; This project can be used with smaller children to help improve fine/small motor skills as well as creative play.
