Paper Plate Pigs in the Mud

The kids finger painted the plate with brown paint and then colored the pigs.  I put brads in a couple of the pigs so they could "roll" in the mud!

Pigs in the Mud Sensory

Pigs in the Mud Snack

It's chocolate pudding (mud) and mini marshmallows (rocks)!

Down on the Farm - Sensory Table

 It started with planting grass seed in my sensory table and a week later, this is what I got!

Purple Cow Drink

Since we know milk comes from cows and we use milk to make ice cream, we just added a little grape pop to make a purple cow drink!  Notice we even used purple straws!

Tractor Wheel Painting

I put brown paint on the tray and the kids ran the tractor throught it and then drove it on their paper!

I found this game at Meijer.  The kids really liked it.  The little animals come apart and you hide each piece under a haystack.  They get to pick up two haystacks on their turn to see if the pieces match.  Very cute and simple!

I made this cookbook when I worked at a day care center for all the kids!  I am going to post more recipes out of it.....someday :)

Milk Taste Test

We taste tested different flavors of milk!  Most of them liked the chocolate!

The Paperplate Chick Mask

Your probably wondering how I cut out such perfect circles.  I have a circle punch, it makes it SO much easier!

All About Chickens

We got to pet and hold real live baby chicks!

We played Chicken Limbo!  The kids LOVED this game!  We also did the Chicken Dance but I didn't get pictures of it because my camera died!

The Reading Nest

Playing the Farm Families Game.  This game is so cute!

The kids LOVE this game!  You match the baby animal to it's mother by their sounds!
