What's a Primer?

The Primer is "a useful companion for modern families." Modeled on an old school primer (textbook) the Chickin Feed Primer will provide simple information to share with your chickins on Nutrition & Kitchen 101, Recipes & Menus, Shopping & Pantry Tips, Activities & Creative Movements and a helpful resource guide.

We are very excited about the recipes & menus section that will be provided by Atlanta mom & renown chef, Sheri Davis. As Chef Chick Sheri's famous rosemary Pop-Corn will no doubt become one of your family favorites! The Primer will contain Shopping & Pantry Tips as well as creative ways to get you chickins involved! Our Nutrition Chick, Emily Harrison has provided simple, chickin-friendly explanations about all of the food groups and why they are important for good health. And Head Yard Bird, Coach Randy Brookins (an elementary PE coach) developed some great activities to keep your chickins moving. Our Drama Chick, Amy Handler has a terrific list of Creative Movement activities that your little chickins will love. Editor Chick, Michelle Newcome is taking a quick break from wrangling girl scouts, her husband's company and her successful urban romance writing career to help put the primer together. We've also solicited tips from lots of folks in the Atlanta community and worldwide through our Feed Mill. The book promises to be a Simple, Fun & Effective tool to help keep nutrition & fitness a priority for busy modern families.

The Primer is in the hopper and should appear this Summer, 2008!
