Here are some ideas you can use with your child in learning about zoo animals. Here are some materials you can use to begin this thene unit; colorful construction paper, white paper plates, google eyes, crayons, scissors, and glue. Before beginning the art activity you can label different animals that live in the zoo. You can pick a short story related to zoo animals; for example, by the famous author Eric Carle. Once your ready to make the art activity its very easy. You can make the ears and pick the color for a hippo, flamingo, bears, etc. Children enjoy making different types of animals in general. There is a great website called orientaltrading.com that has different related theses from seasons, eating healthy, transportation, colors, shapes, and letters of the alphabet.
