Number RhymeFive Pink Flamingos
Five pink flamingos standing in a row,
Dancing around and putting on a show.
They danced to the left, they dance to the right,
Then one pink flaming flew out sight!

RhymeWhat’s in the Egg?
What’s in the pink egg, the pink egg, the pink egg?
What’s in the pink egg?
I don’t know….let’s find out!
(open the egg and remove the animal)
Raise your hand if you know if this animal hatches out of an egg.

ActivityFlamingo Bingo (colors and shapes)
I handed out bingo sheets and dot markers. Once a kid has a bingo, kids would stand up on one leg and squawk until all the kids were standing.

I created my own bingo cards.
