Have you heard of Laurie Berkner?
She sings songs for kids that we just love here in our home. She makes kids music enjoyable, instead of annoying. I must say I can listen to her music non stop while playing with Bug and not get sick of it. She has 5 CDs {i believe} plus a The Best Of CD and I can't tell you which is my fave. I love them all!
On her CD "Whaddaya Think of That?" there is a song called I Know A Chicken, it's also on The Best Of CD.
What you will need:
- Plastic Eggs {one per kid, or as many as you'd like}
- Small items to put inside the egg to make noise. We used yeast, rice & small noodles. We wanted to make ours soft and loud shakers. Other ideas are oatmeal, cornmeal, sprinkles, beads...
- Crazy glue
- Tape
Then fill half an egg about 3/4 of the way. Place glue around the edges and let it dry. {don't glue your fingers to the egg} If you are lazy and impatient like I am you can just wrap some packing tape around the egg so it doesn't open easily. You might not want to do that meathod with younger ones who will try to open it. Bug was a good listener and didn't even attempt it.
Give it to your little one, turn on some Laurie Berkner and shake an egg!
