How to Take Care of an Egg Baby Project

Taking care of a baby is hard work. To help young people understand this fact, schools often assign
students a project involving taking care of eggs. The fragile nature of the egg makes it an excellent
simulation of the care and responsibility involved in parenting. Students learn how to take care of the
eggs as if they were taking care of real babies, realizing in the process the commitment and time
required of parents. As the project unfolds, students recognize that parenting should not be entered
into lightly.
Instructions:
1. Draw a face and unique characteristics on your egg baby to personalize it. Assign it a gender if
one has not already been designated. Make the characteristics of your egg baby appropriate for a
newborn baby. Your egg shouldn't have tattoos or piercings, for example.
2. Give the egg baby a name and write out its birth certificate. You can also fill out this information
in a journal/diary entry, depending on the instructions of the project. Egg baby projects, while
similar in many respects generally vary in how project-related information is recorded by students.
3. Create a comprehensive plan for your egg baby's care. Assess your schedule and how you can
incorporate your egg baby into this schedule.
4. Design something to carry your egg baby in. Keep in mind that the egg is fragile and that there is
generally a negative consequence associated with damaging your egg baby. Think about your
daily routine and plan for any activities that can be particularly dangerous for your egg baby.
Consider creating a carrier made from bubble wrap or foam padding.
5. Daycare options for your egg baby include the 10 minute afternoon break. Students generally are
allotted this time each day during which their egg can be left at the designated daycare in room 2.
Take advantage of this break and plan to participate in activities not suitable for your egg baby
during this time.
6. Tell anyone who will be around your egg that it is special. In particular, remind others that the egg
is fragile and requires specialized care.
7. Place the egg baby somewhere safe when you are unable to directly watch it. You likely won't be
able to care for your egg during certain activities. Keep your egg baby away from household pets
and from young siblings, whose curiosity may get the best of it.
8. Record your experience with the egg baby. This record may take the form of a , journal or project
summary. Return the egg baby at the end of the project, making sure that it is undamaged.
