This is a language and science activity all rolled in one fun project. Save or ask parents for measuring cups from laundary soap and milk bottle caps. Glue caps on sides, add planting mix and seeds. The children can learn all about the plant growth process while talking about how their plants are growing longer and taller . The large barn in the picture below is put on the floor with different colors of tape.
Children can wear puppets or make their own animals to hold.
As each animal verse is sung the child takes their animal in and out of the barn. This is a store bought Milton Bradley game that works on auditory discrimination.
