Crafting Stories

Today we started reading stories and doing arts and crafts that go with the story!

Story: A Very Hungry Caterpillar
Craft: Painting a caterpillar!

First we read our story - The Very Hungry Caterpillar


Then it was time for the craft! 

 Here's how:
  • Moms drew three circles on white paper by tracing yogurt cups.
  • We used Sharpies so that it would show through the paint.
  • We also added legs and feet to our drawings and a nose, mouth and antennas.
  • Then we gave the kids one paint at a time and asked them to paint each circle a different color.
  • When the painting fun was done - they picked out a set of eyes and stuck it into the paint to make their own very hungry caterpillar!

Enjoy!
