Directions: How Many Licks? Show the children the you tube video on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6rHeD5x2tI
Have the children try and see how many licks they can get before they bite into the Tootsie Pop.
The rest of the activities go with the National Graphic Barn Owl video. You can find it on
