The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art held its annual “Very Hungry Caterpillar Day,” featuring activities for small children, complete with a few chances to “meet” the caterpillar himself.

Get cozy with an Eric Carle book. There’s a book nook with chairs and a puzzle area on the floor. “You can cuddle up with your child and enjoy some of the ‘Very' stories together,” Niver says.
