Remember this part, when the caterpillar eats through all of those fruits?
Why not put all of those fruits out on a plate or tray for some food exploration? You can work on counting, talk about colors, smell and feel each fruit, and if up to it, you can even taste each fruit!If you'd like, use a straw to poke a hole in slices of fruit, to make it look like the caterpillar ate through the fruit.
Of course, don't forget about this page,

I like using this book for therapy, but definitely get stuck on that unhealthy food page! I like your idea to use the straw to make it look like the caterpillar has eaten through the fruit :)
ReplyDeleteThat unhealthy page can be tricky! Sometimes I'll have the child do a craft or coloring page involving some of the foods on the junk food page.
DeleteI think it's time to dig this book back out =)
