Dressed-Up Chicken Hen With Apron and Ruffled Cap

A friendly hen stands upright in a loose, knee-length dress with short puffy sleeves and a scalloped apron across the front. She has a small ruffled cap on her head, a round collar with little oval buttonholes, and a pointed beak turned to one side with a cheerful smile. Her feathered wing tips stick out from the sleeves, and a bag hangs from a long strap across her shoulder. She wears two round, flat shoes on thin legs. The big open areas on the dress and apron are easy for small hands, while the scalloped edges and collar give older kids some detail to work on. Try one color for the dress and a different pattern, like polka dots or stripes, on the apron. You can also ask your child what the hen might be carrying in her bag. This page is free to print, so it works well for a farm theme day at home or in the classroom.
