Join the Giant Wiggle

Leading charity Action for Children is teaming up with The World of Eric Carle and encouraging children’s centres, nurseries and groups for under-5s in Nottinghamshire to host a Giant Wiggle event on The Very Hungry Caterpillar Day, Thursday 20th March.

The day, celebrated annually, marks the start of the 45th anniversary celebration of the UK’s most read children’s book. The event will bring together under-5s to wiggle along in giant caterpillar conga lines, encourage them to help others, and open up their imaginations through storytelling and creative activities.

Ruth Sorby, partnership fundraising manager at Action for Children, said: “By hosting a sponsored Giant Wiggle at your centre you’ll be helping us continue to support vulnerable children, young people and families in the heart of communities in Nottinghamshire, and across the UK.

“If you would like to join in the celebrations on 20 March and organise a Giant Wiggle at your local children’s centre or nursery, then please get in touch and we’ll send you everything you need.”
