"I'm a Little Cowboy"

I'm a little cowboy, Here is my hat

Here are my spurs and here are my chaps

When I get up, I work all day

I get on my horse and ride away

Reading Time

ABC Cowboy

Tall in the Saddle

Yippee Yay

Buckamoo Girls
Physical Play

Horse Shoes (This didn't work too well. I thought is was a great little game to play but they just don't have the coordination yet, so they wanted to be right above the stake. Still fun.)

Square Dancing (They actually kind of liked this but I had to guide them every step of the way. I am sure with more practice they could really do a do-si-do.)

Art / Crafts

C-Cowboy ( This didn't turn out quite like I hoped)

Tiolet Paper Rolls (I don't think that I will choose to do these again. They were labor intensive for me and the girls didn't do much. I do think that they are cute. There was also a horse and a cowboy. The kids just wanted to do the cowgirls.)

Math

Measuring Rope lengths (We didn't actually get to this.)

Snack

Cowboy Cornbread & Chile in a Can (We actually had this after Cera left because I didn't think that she would eat it. We just had cookies while she was here. Simple enough.)
