ACTION for Children have teamed up with The World of Eric Carle™ and are encouraging children’s centres, nurseries and groups for under 5s in Wales to host a giant wiggle on Thursday, March 19.

The Giant Wiggle is to celebrate the UK’s most read children’s book, The Very Hungry Caterpillar™.

The event will bring together under 5s to wiggle along in giant caterpillar conga lines, encouraging them to help others, and opening up their imaginations through storytelling and creative activities.

Action for Children provides early year’s child development, learning and childcare services to thousands of tots throughout the UK, through its children and family centres.

In March 2014, more than 32,000 children from nearly 800 schools and nurseries took part in The Giant Wiggle, raising £80,000 for Action for Children.
