We found a new favourite FHE activity! Singing Old McDonald had a Farm, puppet show style. (Thanks for the puppets Gram and Grampa!)
How do 2 children work 5 puppets you ask? The chicken is on Alaina's foot. Seriously. I don't know how she does it. Now that we've found the missing Moose puppet, I'm really not sure how it will work. How's your flexibility Linc?

We all had a lot of fun. But be warned if you try to sing this with Lincoln, he will choose a cow every time. Every time. He thinks it's funny to be repetitive.
"What did he have Lincoln?"
giggle giggle "cow!"
I wouldn't count on anyone besides Alaina being able to do the puppet-on-the-foot thing. That girl has amazing dexterity! It isn't simply a matter of getting the puppet to stick on the foot with the foot even with the hands, I'm assuming that she also makes the puppet do things, right? Maybe we'll just have to have a puppet show the next time you're here. Sounds like great fun, even with the ever-present cow.
