This is a card game inspired by The Very Hungry Caterpillar, to help kids count and learn fruits. To play, print out one copy each of all the cards and cut them out.
The object of the game is to have the most fruits and leaves before the puzzle is completed.
1. Shuffle the cards and put them into the center of the table
2. On his or her turn, each player draws a card. If the card has fruit or leaves, he places it face up on the table (so the other players can see and learn) and says how many fruits (or leaves) there are. The turn passes to the next person. If the card has a piece of the puzzle on it, that card is placed in the center of table to begin (or continue) constructing the puzzle.
3. Play continues until the puzzle is completed. When the last piece of the puzzle is in place, the game ends. Players count how many fruits and leaves they have. The player with the most fruits and leaves wins. (Count the actual number of objects, not the number of cards). Have fun!
