Zoo Study

In conjunction with our trip to the zoo, we studied zoo animals.
Jenny got to be a zookeeper, feeding...
and washing the animals.

For monkey day, we went to Aunt Amy's house...
to visit her monkeys ;)

For bears we read the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears
then acted it out (several times).
We also took a polar bear/penguin bath with ice cubes. 

For birds we painted with feathers and had a feather race. 

Jenny has pretended to be a seal, frog and a baby monkey all week.

She has also gotten much braver at holding critters.  This is one of our 3 gecko "pets."
We found a toad and the cat found a skink while we were searching for snakes.

I have decided that moving to the music of Carnival of the Animals could be a full workout routine!

  1. Awwww, such fun little projects - already embarking on the quest of a home school mom to make learning fun! Great job on rounding out the whole experience for Jenny, and even my kids!

  2. Hahaha! Okay, just now watched all the videos - I was waiting until I had all the kids together because I knew they would enjoy it too. Wow, you caught some fun times! Love the feather race and Jenny's "roly holy".
