It is best if children colour the hen and chicks picture following close observation - maybe after a visit to a farm - or from reference books.

The study of the natural world is the foundation for the later study of science.

The colouring of pictures of natural things, be it plants or animals is more than a pastime activity. It is a means of familiarising young children with these everyday subjects.

The colouring of this hen and chicks picture can of course be used as a pastime, or even as part of a creative lesson - the picture looks super made into spring greeting cards of many kinds. But it has the potential to teach much more.

The UK National Curriculum for Science expects children to be taught to use the local environment to study plants and animals, throughout the year. What better than to use familiar farm subjects - such as a hen and chicks which is a common theme in springtime to teach much about the natural world?
