Threading Hungry Caterpillar

The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle is Tara's all time favourite book. Our bedtime routine is one book by mummy and one book by daddy and most nights this book will be the choice for mummy and daddy to read so after searching online i found this great activity around the book to enhance fine motor skills and listening skills of course!

Basically you print out the activity, laminate it and hole punch each item. The worm is made of a pipe cleaner and as you read the book your child can find the food and get the worm to eat (thread through) it. Lots of fun!!!
