The children are (or were) the proud parents of eleven adorable chicks!
At one point this week, they built a city of blocks for the chicks, who ran around the room. Everyone had fun.
Yesterday it was time for all the peeps to return home. I found these little yellow Easter chicks in a local gift shop, so after the real chicks left, each child got his or her own little chick (tucked into a plastic Easter egg) to keep and care for. It's all good.
Here's info on our farm, if you're interested in learning more. I love the Charlotte's Web project.
Sounds like the kids had a great experience with hatching eggs. I love that picture of them all laying down with their faces peering in to watch the chicks.
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful post!
ReplyDeleteI just love the way the children gathered around the chicks and built a special chiken city for them.
There is nothing better than children's way of showing their love and interest on a project.
And what a sweet idea to give them an easter chick to care about :0)
Wow! How cool! I want to do this too. Do they do chick projects for grown-ups?
ReplyDeleteThat's just adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteThose fluffy little things are so cute, it makes me want to go get some!
ReplyDeleteThese egg posts were cute and inspiring - we ordered 8 Wyandotte hatching eggs and started on making our own incubator. Thank you for this post!!!!
