Hungry Caterpillar

         IMG_3735
Today for snack the children could make their own bread dough hungry caterpillar.  I used our basic pretzel dough recipe, split it and coloured it
green and red.

The children kneaded and rolled the green dough into a long shape then added
a red head.

The dough was sticky and needed flour to stop it from sticking to our hands. 
For some children it was a little off-putting and they took it slowly.

The pan is lined with parchment paper so the children can print their name
beside their snack.  Then into the oven.
