It's all about chickens!!

 Here come the chickens, here come the chickens, book, book, book, book, book!!!!

Only two more sleeps and we just can't wait, this is our favourite experience each year!   We are going to be hatching chicks once again.

This week we have been drawing chickens, painting chickens, talking about chickens, watching chickens hatch (and emu's and parrots too!).  And we discovered that we actually know quite a bit already about chickens.  For some of our tamariki this is going to be their 3rd time hatching chicks!

Here are some of idea's.... What we know about chickens........

- they lay eggs

- they live on a farm

- they hatch our of an egg

- they are brown and white

- they have a double cage

- they have two legs

- they make a book book sound

- they have wings

- they eat salad

- they use their beak to eat

We just can't wait for them to arrive on Monday, I wonder how many girls or boys we might have?
