Fuzzy Caterpillar Build

In this worksheet, students use tweezers to place pom-poms onto each segment of a caterpillar’s body, starting with the head and continuing in order. As learners pick up one pom-pom at a time and place it carefully, they strengthen their pincer grasp and develop fine motor precision. Saying each color aloud as they build the caterpillar supports language development and color recognition. The simple, bold outline provides clear placement targets that help students stay focused and maintain accuracy. Completing the activity encourages patience, sequencing skills, and smooth, controlled hand movement.
