INDOORS

A child's painting of a green caterpillar with a red head.
GFS

Listen to a reading of Calm with The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle and afterwards we will practice a breathing exercise designed to calm young minds. Then, create calming caterpillars with an experimental technique using a balloon as a paintbrush – we know it sounds silly! Each child will take home a calming caterpillar painting.

Program accessibility information available.

Children’s educational programming at Grounds For Sculpture is made possible by generous support from the Jirair S. and Elizabeth Hovnanian Family Foundation. Additional support is provided by Knowledge Without Borders and PNC Foundation. Support is provided, in part, by Jenifer Morack, and Schaeder/Batterman Family Fund of the Princeton Area Community Foundation.
