Have children eat thru the fruit with the caterpillar, as you tell the story. Using picture insect cards or beanies, try this language activity with the rhythm of brown bear. Handy Flowers-Using stamps I let the children stamp insects or grass. We trace each students hand onto yellow or pink paper. Then we cut strips for the stalk.
Students glue on their stalk and hand for a flower.
Glass Butterflies-Using dark colored paper, trace a butterfly shape onto it. Then in the center of each wing, cut a large tear drop shaped opening. Hang in window. Using a ladybug stamp, the children place the ladybug on a cricket, under a butterfly, etc. This is great, as most of my children need scissor training and usually can only cut part of the paper.
