What you need

Let's make it happen

  1. Draw a wavy path across the paper and add a row of circles along it for a caterpillar.
  2. Give the caterpillar a face and draw leaves for its journey. Write a large C beside the picture.
  3. Say caterpillar together, notice its first sound, and invite your child to trace or point to the C.

Adult stays beside the child and helps with writing if wanted.
