TRY THIS
Crawly Caterpillars
Make caterpillars out of old toilet paper rolls! Wrap the toilet paper roll in colorful construction paper (you can use tape or glue to make sure it sticks). Color squiggly designs on it. Cut up a pipe cleaner into six one-inch pieces. Glue or stick the pieces through the bottom of the caterpillar for legs. Now cut another pipe cleaner in half and bend the halves in the shape of antennae. Glue the antennae to the top of the caterpillar's head. Find a pompon and glue it on for a nose. Draw on some eyes. For extra big cater-pillars, use old paper towel rolls instead!
