Date:

______________________ Per: __________

Materials:

- 2 pennies ( 1 Mom penny & 1 Dad penny )

- Baby Face Activity packet

- Colored pencils

- Blank copy paper

Instructions:

1. First determine by “rock, paper, scissors” which partner will toss the Mom penny and

which will toss the Dad penny. Each of you will get a penny.

Mom Penny: ____________________________________

Dad Penny: _____________________________________

2. Males determine the sex of the child. So have the “Dad Penny” flip their coin:

a. If it lands heads up = girl

b. If lands tails up = boy

c. Circle the sex of your baby:

Boy

Girl

3. Give your child a First, Middle, and both of your last names hyphenated – alphabetically.

a. Example: Partner 1’s last name = Smith. Partner 2’s last name = Doe. Baby’s last

name = Doe-Smith

Baby Name:

4. Heads will now represent the dominant allele (Capital letter) and tails will now represent

the recessive allele (lower case letter).

a. For each trait on the chart you will flip a coin to determine what GENOTYPE your

offspring will have.

b. Put a check in the box that represents your offspring.

i. Example: For Shape of Face – Your partner tossed heads, and you tossed

tails.

ii. That means your offspring’s genotype is Rr, and the child will have a round

face.

iii. You would check that box. If you had instead both tossed tails, the child

would have a square-shaped face (rr).

iv. If you’d both tossed heads, the child would have a round shaped (RR) face.

v. Coins should be flipped only once for each trait.
