As part of the first week's challenge I'm posting some photos of our 2010 float for the Bridgeton Holiday Parade. Kids from ages 8-18 worked to make "The Very Hungry Caterpillar." We had several workshops where kids made the paper, then decoupaged it onto foam insulation board that had been cut into shapes representing all of the food the caterpillar ate. Next, we made a giant caterpillar using garden trellis, cotton batting, fabric and a giant red ball! It was a huge success thanks to our friendly, neighborhood, volunteer-artist, Jessica Gilligan!
What a great float! And such a wonderful way to bring the community together :-)
