After making some color pasta last week I was itching to go play with it, urm I mean the kids were.
We bought the The Very Hungry Caterpillar book about 2 years ago, it is one of those much loved books, so much so that our current copy is in 3 pieces from the use.
I very much think after the success of these book inspired crafts with the kids I am going to need to purchase a new “The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle“!
Next I twisted the end of the pipe cleaner to block the beads from falling off. We then threaded the smaller color pasta beads onto our pipe cleaner, trying to mimic the colors of the hungry caterpillar book cover.
What do you think of this little craft? Will your little ones love it too?
