Note: may be sung to the tune of Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star
Little Arabella Miller
Found a wooly caterpillar (pretend to pick up caterpillar)
First it crawled upon her mother, (walk finger of right hand up left arm)
Then upon her baby brother; (walk fingers of left hand up right arm)
All said, "Arabella Miller,
Take away that caterpillar!"
Another version:
Little Arabella Miller had a fuzzy caterpillar
First it crawled upon her mother
Then upon her baby brother
They said Arabella Miller “put away that caterpillar”
But….She got it out again the very next day
Little Arabella Miller had a fuzzy caterpillar
First it crawled upon her brother
Then upon her dear grandmother
They said Arabella Miller “how I love your caterpillar”
