The Little Red Hen

The Little Red Hen

In the tale, The Little Red Hen finds a grain of wheat, and asks for help from the other farmyard animals to plant it. However, no animal will volunteer to help her.

At each further stage (harvest, threshing, milling the wheat into flour, and baking the flour into bread), the hen again asks for help from the other animals, but again she gets no assistance.

Finally, the hen has completed her task, and asks who will help her eat the bread. This time, all the previous non-participants eagerly volunteer. However, she declines their help, stating that no one aided her in the preparation work, and eats it with her chicks, leaving none for anyone else.

The moral of this story is that those who show no willingness to contribute to an end product do not deserve to enjoy the end product: "if any man will not work, neither let him eat."

What Happens once a bird moves in?

When a bird moves into your birdhouse,it'll begin to build a nest for its family using twigs,moss,grass, and other items around the area.

If no birds are moving in,try moving your bird house to a different location. A quiet window that people aren't around often is best!

Preparing our books for upcoming Holiday & Season.

 

As each Season approach's the Little ones are Happy to Listen &  learn all about what's to come. Especially when it comes to Story - Time. Along with the Literature class that Cody attends, he is also preparing his own story for the holiday. Sticker books that let the little ones use there imagination, as if they were the writers of that book. I will pre-read the page that they are working on to give them an idea of what the characters should be doing. But, low and behold I come back to peak and the characters have a life of there own. Then Aubrie & Cody proceed to tell me why the dog is on top of the cieling hiding from a monster instead of on the ground. It has been very eye opening to watch the creativity & book literally come to life.
