Create your own hungry caterpillars. You could draw them, paint them or even make them out of playdough. Now compare their lengths. Which is the longest? Which is the shortest?

Today’s Challenge

Before a caterpillar can become a butterfly it must make a cocoon to have a rest in.

 

Can you work as a team with your family to build a cocoon? You could wrap mummy up in scarves or your big sister up in kitchen roll.

 

You might want to try making different cocoons out of lots of different materials to find out which one works best as cocoon!
