Creepy Crawly Caterpillar

A creepy crawly caterpillar that I see. (shade eyes)
Makes a chrystalis in the big oak tree. (make body into a ball)

Caterpillar Change
author unknown
There was a little caterpillar crawling all about. (Walk with fingers on arm)
He worked and he worked without a doubt. (Wiggle fingers)
Wrapping himself in a snug cocoon. (Wrap other hand around fingers)
Waiting and waiting, will it be soon? (hold fingers)
Look, he's coming out, my oh my! (raise arms in excitement)
For now he's become a beautiful butterfly (Cross thumbs and flap hands like wings)

The Caterpillar
author unknown
The fuzzy little caterpillar went up into a tree (act like your climbing)
Spun his cocoon and then (yawn) went to sleep (spin hands)
While he was sleeping he dreamt that he could fly (making flying motion)
When he woke up (loud, excited) he was a butterfly.

Friendly Caterpillar

A friendly caterpillar
(Fingers crawl up arm)
Made its chrysalis one day.

It turned into a butterfly
(Open hands with thumbs hooked together)
And quickly flew away.

Beautiful Fluttery Butterfly
author unknown
Here is the chrysalis on a twig on a tree
Something is stirring. Let's wait and see
Something comes out with wings folded tight
Now they are spreading all ready for flight
It's a beautiful fluttery butterfly
Away it goes flying - goodbye, goodbye.

Fuzzy Wuzzy Caterpillar
author unknown
Fuzzy, wuzzy caterpillar
Into a corner will crawl. (squat and move to a corner)

And then go fast asleep (pretend to sleep)

To find he has wings of beauty
Changed into a butterfly. (fly with arms)
