[The Hungry Caterpillar Artwork by CoderBaby – 26 and a half months]

I really enjoy seeing all the arts and crafts that my daughter create at school. I love it even more when I get to take them home. Now that I have my craft room all set up, I decided to start giving her more projects to do to foster her creativity.

One of the first projects we worked on in our new craft room is this Hungry Caterpillar-inspired paper art. I cut out a few circles and gave her a color gluestick. Then I showed her a picture of the Hungry Caterpillar and she just went at it. She’s definitely familiar with the story and was talking to me as she glued pieces of paper down. She was telling me how many pears, strawberries, and ice cream this little guy ate.

There’s green glue all over the front and back of the circles, and she even added some brown feet and a nose — punches I created with my hole-puncher!

It was a fun evening and I enjoyed watching her think and be creative. I love the ending result, but what I love more is capturing her create her masterpiece! Now to think of what to do for the next project.. Brown Bear, Brown Bear? Many thanks to her Daddy for helping us put our creative space together!
