Baby chicks

The Cubbies director at our church is so fun.  She is so great with the kids and always comes up with such fun things for them to do.  One thing she does is order a whole bunch of baby chicks, store them at her house for a week or two, and then bring them to Cubbies the Wednesday before Easter.  Then, during Cubbies, she lays out a big tarp and the kids get to hold them and play with them (gently, of course!). 

I brought my kids in before Cubbies so that all of them could see them and hold them, since just Preston is in Cubbies. 

Ashten was a little afraid to hold them, but she wanted to look at them.

Preston was a little nervous at first too, but I heard he held them the whole time in Cubbies.  He told me "I made a nest for the baby chick with my hands and it thought I was it's mommy!". 

Logan loved them so much, he didn't want to put them down and go to his own class.  That didn't surprise me one big, he's the animal lover of our family.

Brayden was very quiet, but he really enjoyed holding them I think.
