Dear Editor,
I am writing to encourage readers with children under five to celebrate the 45th anniversary of Eric Carle’s beloved children’s book The Very Hungry Caterpillar by hosting their own Giant Wiggle. Leading charity Action for Children is setting little ones in East Sussex a very wiggly challenge – to raise sponsorship by forming giant caterpillar conga lines at their children’s centre or nursery on 20th March, The Very Hungry Caterpillar Day. The Giant Wiggle is a brilliant opportunity for tots to have fun with friends, get some exercise and raise money for a great cause. Action for Children is a great charity that does very important work with children and families, helping to give them a happy and healthy start in life. My little one will be taking part, so join us, Action for Children and The Very Hungry Caterpillar – and let’s get wiggling! For more information about The Giant Wiggle, including how to get involved, visit www.actionforchildren.org.uk/giantwiggle Yours sincerely,
Angellica Bell Action for Children supporter TV presenter
