On our way to the farm (modified from Storytimes and More, to the tune of "Here we go round the Mulberry Bush")
Here we go marching down the road, down the road,
Here we go marching down the road, on our way to the farm today!
Additional verses can include: running, tiptoeing, stomping, flying, etc.    

If You're a Chicken and You Know It
If you're a chicken and you know it cluck like this,
If you're a chicken and you know it cluck like this,
If you're a chicken and you know it, then your face will surely show it.
If you're a chicken and you know it, cluck like this.
Additional actions: flap wings, scratch, peck 


I Know a Chicken (from Laurie Berker's CD "Whaddaya Think of That?") 

Craft: We painted a picture of a chick with yellow paint.

Literacy tip of the week: Books are a great way to introduce new facts to your child. For instance our book this week "Eggs 1, 2, 3" teaches us the proper names for various baby animals.
