Driving My Tractor on YouTube. Sing, pat, and drive your tractor along to this fun farm song!
Sing
I’m a Little Chick (to the tune of ‘I’m a Little Teapot’)
I’m a little chick who’s ready to hatch, (crouch down inside your egg)
Pecking at my shell, Tap, tap, tap! (pecking motion with hands)
When I crack it open, out I’ll leap (jump out of shell)
I’ll flap my feathers, and say, ”Peep! Peep! Peep!”
Finger Play:
5 eggs and 5 eggs, that makes 10 (show your 10 fingers)
Sitting on top is mama hen (bump fists on top of each other)
Crackle, crackle crackle, what is this I see? (clap hands)
10 baby chicks as cute as can be! (wiggle your 10 fingers)
Activity
Fluffy Sheep: Print off an outline of a sheep. You can paint or color the sheep any color your like, or glue cotton balls on the sheep to make him fluffy!
