Parents
Mr. Farmer, Guitar Pickin' Chicken and her Barnyard Friends brings enjoyment to all. The new videos show the band traveling to performances, and performing for their fans. Episodes present a life lesson in a compassionate way.
Teachers
The Guitar Pickin' Chicken song and music video has been used in many classrooms. One of the most rewarding uses has been the use of the Guitar Pickin' Chicken for autistic children. Teachers promise to play the song after a lesson, and let the students do the "Guitar Pickin' Chicken Dance". This promise has helped the kids to focus, knowing there is a reward waiting for them. If you are a teacher contact us if you would like Guitar Pickin' Chicken music..
Original Story
The “Guitar Pickin’ Chicken®️” was originally created and included in an Art Box Kids package delivered to the children at Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital. The Art Box Kids is a non-profit started by Cleveland Browns Center Steve Everett. With no promotion, we discovered that the song received a Half Million Radio Station site plays. Prior to, and following, the music video teachers of autistic children, as well as other teachers, used the song in their classroom. From the very first play children do the “Guitar Pickin’ Chicken®️ Dance”; that is a dance they make up.
