Today is all about baby horses! 🐎
Are you new to these monthly themes? No worries! You can join our FB group and print out the April School Calendar to get started! Just scroll to the bottom of this post and pop your email in so I can send it to you!
Keep reading below for Baby Horse Day activities and printables!
Day #7. Baby Horse Day!
Here is what we have planned for today! 🙂 Did you want to download and print out everything for this month all at once? You now can! Grab the Spring School Activity Pack here!
This 81-page PDF bundle comes with every printable you’ll need for this month PLUS extra printables (Baby Animals Notebook for Kids, Baby Animal Fact Cards, & Spring Vocabulary Cards). It is great for saving time by downloading and printing everything all at once! You’ll also receive a Spring School bookmark and punch card for your kids to use as they move through each themed day. 🥰
Activity Ideas
IMPORTANT NOTE: Most of these printable activities will be FREE for you to download, but only during Baby Horse Day! So, make sure to download them even if you are going to do Baby Horse Day later in the week – that way you can still snag them for free. If you could leave a review behind afterwards, that would be amazing too! THANK YOU!! 🥰❤️
#1. Handprint Baby Horse Craft
Grab some construction paper, this printable, scissors, and glue to make this cute handprint horse! This makes for a cute school keepsake too. ❤️
#2. Baby Horse Silhouette Art Project
Encourage your kids to paint a background scene and, once it is dry, cut out and glue on the horse from this PDF!
#3. Watch This to Learn More About Baby Miniature Horses!
If your kids are visual learners or if your family likes to include some learning videos, here is one for today from The Good and the Beautiful! There are also some extra options at the bottom of this blog post. 😊
#3. Fill Out Baby Horse Notebook Page (BONUS)
Did you get the Spring School Bundle or the Baby Animals Notebook? Color, read, and fill out the baby bunny notebook page!
#4. Read & Hang Up Baby Horse Fact Card (BONUS)
Did you grab the Spring School bundle or the Baby Animal Fact Cards? You can read the fact card for today and hang up on the wall or display board!
Books
(Note: Everyone has different book standards! I highly suggest skimming through any books before reading them to your kids, just to make sure it aligns with your family values first) 🩷
Today we’ll be reading, “If I Was a Horse” by Sophie Blackall, “The Wild Little Horse” by Rita Grey, and “Horses” by Margo Lundell.
However, if you were unable to grab these books from the library or store, here are the read aloud options on YouTube!
PS: If you have an older child, I recommend having them read 1-2 chapters from, “Charlotte’s Web” today!
Do You Have Extra Time? Here Are Some Ideas/Videos!
Pick and choose any of the videos/activities below to learn more!
#1. Want to learn more about horses? Here is a short video for your kids to watch!
#2. Go on a virtual field trip and meet a horse trainer!
#3. Do your older kids want to watch a horse being born? This 24-minute video shows EVERYTHING (so be forewarned), but the foal is so cute and it’s fun to see how fast he tries to get up and start walking right away!
#3. Here is a cute drawing tutorial for today from Art for Kids Hub!
I hope that you and your family had a wonderful time learning together today! If you need to print out the April Calendar still, drop your email below and I’ll send it right over!
