The April Issue is Here!

Hi Readers!

The April issue of Chirp magazine is packed with SILLY FUN!

Make funny paper mustaches and noses for pretend play, learn why tickling makes us laugh, and read a silly poem. Even the Amazing Animal feature is kind of a silly animal: the giraffe! Giraffes are so cute and sooooooo tall. They are so tall when they need a drink of water they need to spread their legs waaaaaaaaaay to bend down and reach the lake or stream.

Another cool fact about giraffes is that babies are able to walk just minutes after they are born! Check out this video of a baby giraffe taking its first steps. Like many babies, it falls down a lot but then finally gets it!

Meet a Panda for National Panda Day!

Hey readers,

It’s National Panda Day on March 16th! Check out the May 2022 issue of Chirp, to get to know this cool creature!

Did you know pandas have bones that act like fingers and thumbs? This helps them grab food to eat!

Have a great day,
