The Official Sandra Boynton Event Kit

ACTIVITY #3
BARNYARD DANCE!
HOEDOWN
H Download* the sheet music for the “Barnyard Dance”song. (The
CD is available in the book–and–CD Rhinoceros Tap—or make
up your own tune!)
H Gather the children into a circle for a Barnyard Dance
and hand out any music-makers (drums, shakers,
recorders, spoons—get creative with home-style
instruments!). You might teach the kids a few
animal-themed actions (waggle hands for
sheep ears, horse tails, rooster
combs, and chicken
wings) and/or encourage
animal noises when
prompted! The dance
itself is easy as long as
the dancers listen to the
“caller’s” directions.
ACTIVITY #4
BOYNTON BINGO
H Download* the Boynton Bingo cards and
call sheet.
H Cut up the call sheet and put the squares
into a hat or bowl.
H Hand one bingo card to each child (each
child should receive a different card).
H Assign a “caller” to pull out one call
square, describe the image, and show it to the
children. Use cut-up pieces of paper as bingo markers;
kids should place a marker on the called image if it is on
their card.
H Explain to the kids that when a row is covered in any
direction on their card, the child calls out “BINGO!”
