The kindergarten teachers creatively utilized a puppet show to tell the story of “The Very Hungry Caterpillar”, capturing the attention of their young students and allowing them to learn about healthy and unhealthy food choices without even realizing it. Well done to the teachers for their imaginative teaching methods.
