Craft
-Make pom pom chicks
You'll need:
yellow pom poms
google eyes
orange paper, felt or foam paper
scissors
glue
Have your child glue 2 eyes on each pom pom. Draw feet and either cut them out yourself or have your child cut them out (depending on their scissor cutting skill). Then have your child glue the feet on the bottom of the pom pom. They may be used in dramatic play.
-Chicken and horse coloring pages-Go to google images and type in chicken/horse coloring page, then choose your favorite, print it and have your child color it. Save it for day 8 to make a book. On the top of the chicken paper, write chickens eat corn and/or lay eggs. On top of the horse paper, write horses eat grass (Or you can cut it out and paste it on another piece of paper. In that case, write on that paper.)
