The Chicken and the Egg: Life Cycles
Many a human has lain awake in bed
Wondering which came first, the chicken or the egg?
The mystery forms an endless loop,
Played out each day in the chicken coop.
The Chicken and the Egg is a lively shadow puppet play about the life cycles of the various plant and animal groups. The stage is an inflatable chicken with an egg-shaped shadow screen. Animated shadow sequences are introduced with original songs and colorful puppets.
Students learn about plants and animals from birth, through developing into adults, reproduction, aging, and death.
They learn that different species spend varying periods of time in each stage of development and that they may look the same, similar, or completely different at specific stages.
