Chicks hatch from eggs. Let your child decorate one on paper.

• Help your child draw the shape of an egg on a plain piece of paper. If you like, you can also help your child cut out the shape.
• Using crayons, markers, or paint, let your child decorate the egg.
• Your child might also like to pretend to be a chick hatching out of an egg! He or she can curl up in a ball, then peck, peck, peck the imaginary shell, and crawl out. Hello, baby chick!
