Egg Container Caterpillars


Not the most original activity, but easy and fun.  Cut a cardboard egg container into strips and paint or glue tissue paper on it (the tissue paper is more "Eric Carle" related), and draw a face.  This activity can be related to spring, to the butterfly life cycle, to moods (my son likes to draw a happy face on one end and a sad face on the other), counting, etc.  It can be made as simple or detailed as you like.

Sometimes we read caterpillar books:

The Very Hungry Caterpillar- Eric Carle
Oh My a Butterfly
Butterflies- nonfiction
