Hey, What is the name of the Cartoon Chicken that...
I heard you were wondering what is the name of that cartoon chicken in that funny cartoon show. You know, the silly, little, cute, tall, fat, cocky, cock-a-doodle-doo, rooster or hen? Well, I know the chicken cartoon you mean.
Chicken Cartoons to Trace and Draw
What's the name of the cartoon chicken that says, "I say, I say, I say boy"? Well, my friend, that chicken is a rooster.
His name is Foghorn Leghorn, and he's often referred to as the Looney Tunes Chicken. He appeared on the Bugs Bunny and Road Runner Show, Merry Melodies, and he even won an Oscar. Well, one of the cartoons he starred in won, "Walky Talky Hawky" in 1946. His buddy is a Rhode Island Red, aptly named, Red.
What's the name of the Superhero Chicken? He's also a rooster, and his name is Henry Cabot Henhouse III. He says, "Bawk for Super Chicken." He played on the "George of the Jungle" cartoon series. He drinks super sauce out of a martini glass to transform into a hero.
What's the name of that little chicken with big glasses on the Foghorn Leghorn Chicken Cartoon? His name is Egghead Jr. He first appeared in 1954 on "Little Boy Boo". His mother's name is Miss Prissy. Foghorn liked to say, "That boy, I say, that boy..." often in reference to the little chicken.
What is the name of the chicken in Chicken Little? Little Rooster, again. Chicken Little was his name, but they often called him "Ace". He had glasses too. This Disney cartoon came out in 2005.
Photo from Wikipedia for the movie soundtrack.
In 2006, Rob Paulsen played a silly chicken in the movie Barnyard.
His name was Peck. Again, a rooster.
Rock-A-Doodle.
What is the name of the chicken in Rock-a-doodle? The movie came out in 2004. His name is Chantecler. His name refers to a breed of chicken originating in Canada.
In the 2000 movie, Chicken Run the Rooster's name is Rocky. Hey, hey, hey... the girl got a star. The hen in this one is named Ginger. In the end, they want to know which came first, the chicken or the egg, so they can start a chicken farm.
There is a new cartoon the kids watch on Netflix, "Chicken Town". The rooster is named, Zino. Polly (the landlord) is always after his chickens.

Real Baby Chicks Picture
What do you call a baby chicken? Adult male chickens are known as roosters or cocks and females are called hens. Cock-a-doodle-doo! However, in baby chicks under 1 year old, females are called pullets, and males are sometimes referred to as cockerels. If you are purchasing one at a feed store, straight-run means they haven't been sexed so you can have boys or girls. Sex-link means the chicken is from two different breeds of parents. The male and female chicks show different feather colors at birth, so they are easier to identify.
Baby Huey is not a chicken.
Which brings me to my favorite chicken! But wait, he's a baby duck or duckling. He first starred in "Quack-a-doodle-doo" in 1949. Huh? I always thought he was a big chicken. Anyway, his name is Baby Huey. You know the one... so silly, so duh-y.

Plan an Indy 500 Race Theme for a Kid's Birthday Party or Special School Activity
The Play Connection, Inc. (my alter ego) does lots of fun preschool activities that are great for a birthday party or for kid's outdoor pe games. Due to the proximity of Indianapolis, an Indy 500 racing theme is always popular in May. Plan one for a fun field day at school.
Use recycled household items as props.
Ideas on how to plan an Indy 500 Race Birthday Party:
Purchase inexpensive, large, black buckets to use in a pit stop race game.
Recycle a milk jug, paint it black with spray paint or acrylics, and use duct tape or paint to spell out G-A-S.
Turn a milk crate upside down to use as a Winner's Circle.
Hang a race banner (we got ours at the Dollar Tree).
Make9 colored race flags for a realistic race experience.
Trick out your cardboard car with paper plate wheels or fancy, cardboard fan wheels.
Wondering 'what do the flags mean or stand for in the Indy 500 race'?
Green means go! Of course, you already knew that! Just like shouting "Green Light", the green flag is waved to signal the start of the race. It is also used to for restarts after a caution flag.
Yellow flag signals caution for a hazard. It could be an accident, debris, rain, maybe a silly goose got loose on the track. The pace car hops on the track to lead the other cars in safety. When we play Red Light, Green Light , we use yellow to signal walk very slowly.
Red flag STOP! Do not pass go, do not collect $100 dollars. A red light means freeze in your tracks. It is for accident or rain conditions. Head straight to the pits or stay parked. No repairs, tire changes, or gassing up allowed. In other words, no fair cheating!
Red flag with a yellow "x" means the pits are closed to all vehicles.
Black flag means a penalty to a car on the track. Don't break the rules! It's also used for mechanical failures.
Black flag with a white "x" black-flag penalty. Your car isn't keeping score anymore.
Blue flag or blue flag with yellow diagonal stripe Get out of the way, slow poke, a faster driver is about to pass. We use a blue light in our game to signal to turn around and walk backward toward the finish line.
White flag the end is near! It's the FINAL lap.
Checkered flag Hooray! We have a winner. This flag means the race is over.
For our race car game of Red Light, Green Light, we purchased dowel rods and squares of fabric from Joann's Fabrics. To attach, rub glue on the dowel, wrap one end of fabric around the dowel, and staple as close to the stick as possible.
Lay out aluminum foil, tissue paper, paper plates, and colored duct tape. Let the kid's diy imagination run wild.
On your mark, get set, go! Mark off a track with chalk, tape, or use cornstarch paint in the grass. Get your flags ready to wave. Have parents or helpers use a stopwatch to track each child's time. No need to compete against others. Race around several times for your best lap. Now the fun begins!
On your mark, get set, let the games begin!
How to play pretend Pit Stop
Get parents and teachers involved with the fun. Before the game begins designate a pit crew for each "driver". During a caution flag, have everyone pull into the pits. One member of the crew must run around the car 4 times checking pretending to check tires. Another crew member will take the pre-filled milk "Gas" jug (water) and pour it into the black bucket. Then, the crew members must use a funnel to re-fill the jug. Have the driver time the crew for even more giggles. When all the water is gone, the drivers can take off again.
Measure the water in the jugs to see which pit crew wins a prize. Just pour it back into the buckets, and see which one retained the most water (gas).

How to Make a Rooster or Chicken Hat Band Mask or What She's Not Wearing Wednesday
Chickens: Rooster, Hen, Pullet, Cockerel or Cock. Whatever you call them, we're on a kick. Our baby chicks are six-weeks-old, and we adopted three duckling companions for them. We're still waiting to see if they turn out to be girls or boys.
The waiting is the hardest part! In the meantime, we are crafting chickens. We've made a chicken hat/ mask for the littles. It's an easy craft for preschool kids. Pair it with The Little Red Hen for a fun companion class lesson. Hopefully, they'll be happy to wear their new cap. You could even perform a little chicken play skit.
Baby ducks, four weeks old.
Mayhem was not in the mood to wear a chicken hat. So, this post is what she's not wearing. Shh... I'll tell you what she is wearing. She marched upstairs and found a pair of hand-me-down khaki shorts which she paired with last year's favorite rainbow striped dress. This year, it is more like a polo shirt. Maybe she'll be back to her DIVA self next week. In the meantime, hope you enjoy crafting construction paper chicken hats with the kids.
Chicken hat for Little Red Hen play skit.
Cut two, two inch strips down the length of the construction paper. Measure one strip band to child's head. Glue ends together. Now fold the other strip in half to form the chicken's beak. Bend in half until ends meet, glue together, and attach beak to hat band strip. Cut out the comb and wattle as pictured (Check back tomorrow for template). Paste wattle to beak, draw two black circles for nose holes. We cut out two paper "chicken combs" and glued to a piece of cardboard to make the comb stand tall. Score a slit in each end of the comb and slide into hat band. Ta da!
You've got a preschool chicken costume in less than 15 minutes! Here's an idea for a kid's flower hat band or did you ever wonder how to make a chef's hat for kids? Or maybe a Phineas Birthday Party Hat for kids...

Free Printable "Call of Duty" Coloring Pages for Teens?
There aren't any official Call of Duty Coloring Pages for Teens. You can make your own on those make your own coloring pages websites. See, "Call of Duty" isn't rated "E" for everyone, not even "Teen". So, unless you're over 17, you shouldn't be playing. That's right, it's rated M17 (Mature Audiences). Are you mature and like to color? Maybe...

I tested out a few for Black Hawk Helicopters, Special Forces Vehicles, and Army Soldiers. Here are my results. What do you think?
Black Hawk Helicopters Coloring Pages for Teenage Boys.
There is my disclaimer and lack of endorsement. If you're older than 17, and still want to color here's an idea, print images from callofduty.com, trace the hardlines on a light table, and learn how to draw your own coloring pages. The best way to achieve a skill in a particular style is by copying. For best results, turn the image upside down while you trace. This will help avoid mistakes as you focus on the contour lines and not the image itself.
