Eric Carle’s books are so fabulous! Where would any of us be without The Very Hungry Caterpillar to kick off our very first excursions into the wonderful world of books and words and colors? If your kid loves the book, check out the official website for some ideas for your party.
There are several activities that would go along well, especially if your party will be indoors. These activities will be best for kids a bit older than one year old.
For the little ones, have the books out for them to look over, and also you could read to them. Most one year olds will simply enjoy looking around and being together. If you had a big inflatable pool, you could blow it up and put a lot of primary color balls inside, and the kids will enjoy playing with those. Send soft toys, especially bath ones, as a memorable party favor as well. Given his fabulous use of colors, decorate with all primary colors for balloons, streamers, and table ware.
You may want to look for a Caterpillar Mylar balloon for the special birthday kid’s seat! You could also make a large Caterpillar and/or other characters from Eric Carle’s books out of large colored cardboard ~ and decorate the party room. For a cake, how about Caterpillar Cupcakes?
