Paint the cups with bright colors.

We decided to go almost full rainbow, but we mixed up the colors a bit.

While the paint is drying, make the caterpillar head.

We used a large black pom pom and gave it a pipe cleaner antenna.

Googly eyes complete the face.

When the paint is dry, glue the body pieces together.

We glued ours to look like it was arching its back like caterpillars do sometimes.

Finally, glue the head to the body.

Put your new caterpillar in a prominent place.
