The caterpillars are in their new home.
All 5 caterpillars are working hard.
The caterpillars are starting to build their cocoons!!
Day 11
They are getting massive!!!
Day 7
They are getting very big now.
They are doubling in size everyday. They aren’t very active today. Think they are too full to
move just like the Hungry Caterpillar in the story.
Day 2 31.3.20
The caterpillars are awake. They already look bigger. The sludge at the bottom of their pot is their food. Keep an eye on it over the next week as they eat more and more of it.
Baby Caterpillars ��

Hello everyone. This is Mrs Peake. My family were very lucky to have a delivery of five baby caterpillars this morning. At the moment they are very tiny and hardly moving after their long, cold journey to our house. Soon they will wake up and start eating and get much much bigger. Do you know what they will turn into soon? Keep coming back to this page and I will post pictures and videos so you can see how they are getting on.
If you have any questions, or would like to tell me anything you know about caterpillars, please email me at
