Naturally Curious Tots: Animal Tracks and Homes

This week's theme for Naturally Curious Tots is Animal Tracks and Homes.

Izzie searching for animal tracks and homes...

We visited the VA Wildlife Center, a hospital for native animals.

I found these great animal track matching cards at Montessori For Everyone.

This activity was a bit challenging for Izzie. To help her self correct, I added matching stickers to the back of the matching cards. She enjoyed guessing which set of tracks belonged to the animal and checking to see if she was correct.

She also played with her Matching Animals With Their Homes puzzle. Similar puzzle found here.

  2. I found those cards after we had finished our unit. We did a sheet that was similar from A-Z nature.

    I really like your week. Great puzzle too.

  6. We have used those animal track cards as well.

    This is a fun theme. We also used some of our animals from our toy collection and were able to get some pretty good prints in play doh.
