Cut out large leaves from cardboard or Styrofoam®. Punch six holes, fairly close together, in the boards. Use extra-long pipe cleaners in different colors for caterpillars. Encourage the children to thread their fuzzy caterpillar in and out of the leaf holes in the art center. Provide copies of The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle, as well as books that show real caterpillars, for the children to read.
