Crawling Caterpillars

All kids love Eric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillars. I decided that this was the perfect inspiration to teach kids to draw movement.
1. Draw a horizontal squiggly line across a piece of horizontal white paper.
2. Glue a precut oval shape for the head at the left side of the paper. This should be glued over the squiggly line.
3. Paint green ovals over the squiggly line until you get to the end.
I gave each child a palette of yellow and green, so they could have different shades on the caterpillar segments.
