In this captivating read-aloud, we follow the lovable caterpillar as it embarks on a culinary adventure. Each day of the week, our little caterpillar feasts on different treats, from juicy fruits to savory snacks. As it grows plump and satisfied, the caterpillar prepares for its remarkable metamorphosis. Eric Carle’s vibrant illustrations and engaging storytelling make this book a perfect addition to kids’ story time.

Educational Themes:

Life Cycle: Children learn about the fascinating transformation from caterpillar to butterfly.

Counting: The book introduces counting as the caterpillar devours its meals.

Days of the Week: Each day is associated with a new food item, reinforcing the days of the week.

Healthy Eating: Through the caterpillar’s food choices, kids discover the importance of nutritious eating habits.

During this one-time course students will listen to a read aloud done by myself with my daughter as a special guest star. They will also be provided with matching print outs to practice counting, handwriting, coloring, and the life cycle of a butterfly

If learners complete their worksheets within the week they can upload a picture of them completed to the class page for teacher feedback and a cute certificate!
