This is a fun preschool craft that makes a great lesson if you combine it with reading The very hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle. The Very hungry caterpillar is a great book and kids love it. I love combining crafts with books!! Then you can bring the characters to life in the books that you read.
Supplies:
- Paper Egg Carton
- Pipecleaners
- Googly eyes
- Markers
- Glue
- Scissors
Steps:
- Cut a section of the egg carton to make the body of the caterpillar
- Cut pipecleaners and stick in top of front of egg carton
- Glue eyes on front of egg carton
- Decorate egg carton with markers
- You can add legs with pipe cleaners, by inserting them into the side of the egg carton.
Enjoy!!

thanks.
The very hungry caterpillar did make me smile, fun and activities are more important than great artwork.
This is a great idea I’m going to use it for my college assignment in work placement. Thanks
