Welcome back to On the Farm week! Today we’ll make animal sounds on Word Party, wash some muddy animals, read a book, and make a pizza snack

Watch Together

In this episode of Word Party, (Season 1, Episode 2, “Down on the Farm,”) the babies pretend to be farm animals. After watching, you might ask your child:

Which animal did both Kip and Lulu want to be?
Do you remember the name for a girl chicken? How about a boy chicken?
What animal would you be if you were playing with the babies?
Can you think of any other farm animals?

Watch the episode here.
