Practicing Milking a Cow
At Pacesetter Academy, they did a fun activity where they practiced milking a cow! To do this activity they took a big vinyl glove, filled it with milk, and then had the kids practice, "Milking," it just like a cow's udders. You can do this with your class too!
Materials needed for this activity
To do your own cow milking activity you will need the following:
*A vinyl glove
*Milk, water, or some kind of thin liquid
*A small pointed pin
*Some string to tie to the glove
How to do this activity
To do the cow milking activity follow these steps:
1. Take your vinyl glove and fill it with your milk/water/liquid.
2. Tie the open end of the glove up tight!
3. Attach some string to the glove's part you tied up and hang it from somewhere.
4. Carefully poke a tiny hole with your pointed pin in each of the fingertips on the glove.
5. Start gently squeezing the fingertips like udders to get the liquid out--it is just like milking a cow!
