Activities for Rumen the Rooster Story

Rumen’s sister and mother are hens and lay about one egg a day. Eggs are very prominent in Bulgarian and Ukrainian art. The students can do a computer search to find some of their fancy designs. But any design is fun to draw.


Students can draw a large egg or several smaller eggs on a sheet of paper. Using crayons, colored pencils or water color paints, they can decorate their paper eggs.


A variation on that theme would be a piñata of an egg.


Another egg-based activity is the now famous plastic Easter eggs with various symbols of the Easter story. There are lots of possibilities adapting that.
