Most caterpillars are harmless. Hairless ones are never poisonous. Fuzzy ones (woolly bears, tent caterpillars) are rarely poisonous. Horned ones (tomato hornworm, hickory horned devil) are not harmful. Two exceptions in Atlanta: saddleback caterpillar (green with brown saddle, stinging bristles) and puss caterpillar (furry, quarter-sized, severe sting). Teach children to ask before touching.
