A bird's eye view of the cycle of seasons. Includes nest building, hatching, feeding, learning to fly, migration. Ideal for pre-school to primary grades with lots of participatory movement, finger plays, simple sign language, poems, stories and puppets. I include short bits about creatures other than birds which can fly, such as winged insects and mammals (e.g. butterflies and bats). I can easily adjust the elements of the program to the level of the audience, so that all are capable of participating throughout the program.
