Craft: Cow Mask
This week's mask was based on the picture at left with one small change. The make the cow's head, we chopped the plate in half and then cut out the center of the plate so that it looked like a "C". The kids then colored the plate, nose, ears, and horns before gluing them all together.
Literacy Extensions:
- Extend I Spy on the Farm by giving clues about farm animals and seeing if your child can guess them. Ask them for what the different baby animals are called or what sounds they make.
- Visit a farm and see if the owners will let you go on a tour.
