Dora’s Eggs by Julia Sykes

The children will be thinking about what Dora thought was special about the baby animals and how proud she was of her chicks.                                                                                                                       Talk to your child about what makes them special, what are they proud of doing?

The children will learn the names of farm animals and their babies.         Ask your child to draw their favourite farm animal and baby, can they tell you their names?

The children will look at how many babies the animals have.                                                                             Look at the pictures and encourage your child to count the animals. Can they write the number?
