BS stand in a circle and a rolled up newspaper is the caterpillar.

One BS is outside the circle, running round trying to catch the branch which is being passed round the circle.

When the BS catches the caterpillar he joins the circle and another BS takes his place.

Materials Needed:

• Lid (Frozen Juice Container, Baby Food Jar, etc)

• Red felt

• Green Felt

• Brown and Green Pipe Cleaners

• Tacky Glue or Super Glue

• Magnet

Instructions:
1. Trace a circle around the lid on the red felt and cut it out.

2. Glue the red circle onto the lid. If you are using a baby food jar lid or something similar, glue the circle to the inside of the lid.

3. Cut out small leaf shapes from the green felt. You want it to look like 2 leaves attached in the middle. A leader should make a small hole in the middle of the leaf shape.

4. Cut a small piece of a green pipe cleaner to be the stem (1-2 inches long).

5. Stick the end of the pipe cleaner through the hole in the middle of the leaf.

6. Using heavy duty glue, or even strong tape, attach one end of the pipe cleaner to the side of the lid without the felt. You will also want to glue the magnet on the back now.

7. For a finishing touch, cut a 2-3 inch long piece of brown chenille stem and glue that on the front of your apple to be a worm poking his head out! Glue wiggly eyes on your worm if you like! Make sure to lay it flat until the glue is completely dry, and then hang on the fridge!

Divide the BS into teams. Each grasps the waits of the BS in front

The Head (1^st in team) has to catch the tail (last in team) by dragging everyone with him - but the tail tries not to get caught. Anyone who lets go breaks the chain and must become the tail.

If the head touches the tail they both exchange places with other BS in the team so everyone had a go at being head or tail
