The Very Hungry Caterpillar's Fruit Kebabs

Little Chefs meets Little Bookworms: in the coming weeks we'll be reading books and preparing related dishes. This week we read The Very Hungry Caterpillar and made fruit kebabs with the fruits the caterpillar ate on weekdays. Next week we might make a kebab with a piece of chocolate cake, a slice of salami and a pickle...


To make your own fruit kebabs, you'll need:

- a copy of The Very Hungry Caterpillar
- apples
- pears
- plums
- strawberries
- oranges (we used clementines)
- bamboo skewers




Chop the fruits into bite sized pieces.
Read the book for the children and then it's their turn to:

- identify the different fruits from the book
- arrange the fruit pieces on the skewers (following the order in the book, or not)
- eat the kebabs straight away!
