Weekly Newsletter: C-Caterpillar/Number 3
October 5-9, 2026

caterpillarThis week, we’re embarking on a fun-filled journey with our friend Cathy Caterpillar and the number 3!

 

  • Monday: Meet Cathy Caterpillar! We’ll be learning about the letter “C” and encouraging your child to bring in a show-and-tell item starting with the hard “C” sound.
  • Tuesday: Let’s count to three! We’ll explore the number 3 (tres) through various activities and games.  It is also our monthly Family Breakfast and PJ Day!
  • Wednesday: It’s munching time! We’ll dive into the beloved story, “The Very Hungry Caterpillar,” and discover what happens when a tiny caterpillar becomes a beautiful butterfly.
  • Thursday: Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf? We’ll act out the classic tale of the Three Little Pigs, learning about teamwork and problem-solving.
  • Friday: Three blind mice! We’ll sing, dance, and learn about the number 3 through this classic nursery rhyme.

Parent Tip: Help your child develop fine motor skills by practicing cutting out shapes like circles and triangles. This will also help prepare them for writing.

Let’s make this week a crawling, counting adventure!
