This week we read the story 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar'. In the story the caterpillar eats lot and lots of food and gets a stomachache.  We talked about foods that are good for our bodies and foods that we should eat in moderation. We sorted Miss Imrie and Miss Mordey's shopping into healthy foods and unhealthy foods. 

The children all loved making very healthy caterpillar snacks using different types of fruit. The children chose fruits they liked and chopped them up independently. They were very yummy to eat. 

We also set up a Greengrocer shop in the role-play area. The children have loved taking turns to be the Greengrocer and the customers. They wrote some amazing shopping lists full of healthy fruits and vegetables. 

We even found our very own very hungry caterpillar so we made a home for him and we are going to look after him until he hopefully turns into a butterfly. 

It has been an excellent week, full of fun and lots of learning.
