DLTK's Crafts for Kids
Egg Carton Caterpillar
I have a bad habit of neglecting to do the old standards with my girls... I always want to do something 'new and exciting' with them. I forget that when you're in preschool, everything is new and exciting. Kaitlyn LOVED this craft -- I guess that's why it's an old standard.

Materials:

· cardboard egg carton
· scissors
· green tempra paint
· paint brush
· pipe cleaner (chenille)
· sharp pencil
· wiggly eyes, 2 cheerios or 2 fruit loops
· glue

Instructions:

· cut one strip of cups (6 cups) from the egg carton -- adults can do this before craft time.

· paint the cups green and let dry

· using a sharp pencil, poke two holes in the top of the first cup -- again, adults should do this step.

· from inside the cup, poke both ends of the pipe cleaner through the pencil holes (one end through each hole)

· wrap the ends of the pipe cleaner around the pencil to make it curly

· glue the wiggly eyes onto the head (you could substitute 2 cheerios or 2 fruit loops)
