Wow!  This zoo animals printable was one of the very first things I made when I started blogging five years ago.  I've learned a lot since then, so I thought that now would be a good time to update the printable.  I used pictures from Pixabay, which is a royalty free website, and I think the pictures are amazing.  Just like the original printable, these Montessori-inspired 3-part cards are designed to match the Safari Ltd Wild Animals toob.

This is the original picture from this post (2015) showing how my toddlers matched the babies and mamma animals to the printable.  Although the printable is now completely different, the activity can still be done with the Safari Ltd Wild Animals and the Safari Ltd Zoo Babies.  These animals are also very good in sensory bins and messy play.






To make the PDF into a set of Montessori-inspired 3-part cards, print two copies of the cards and laminate both sets.  Then, cut out all the cards.  For one set of cards, leave the picture and label attached, which then becomes part one of the 3-parts.  With the second set of cards, cut the label off the pictures making two pieces.  The child can then match the picture to the picture and the picture to the label, using the whole cards as a way to self-check their answers.  Of course, the cards can also be matched to the Safari Ltd Wild Animals toob.

Pun Party Themes "Luke was Adopted Too" ( Star Wars ) "Welcome to Our Zoo" ( zoo ) "We're Wild About This One" ( jungle ) "Wanted: Asleep or Awake" ( cowboy ) "Bee-ing Loved" or "Sweet as Honey" ( bees ) "We Found the Missing Piece" ( puzzles ) "Showers of Blessings" ( rain/umbrella/rainbows ) "You are My/Our Sunshine" ( sunflowers/yellow ) "You Color Our World" ( paint/color/art ) "Superman was Adopted Too" ( superhero ) "Our Family was Built by Adoption" ( construction ) "This is My Circus- These are My Clown

When I rebranded this blog from "In Our Pond" to "Homeschooling My Kinetic Kids" this year, I wanted to add more content for high-energy kids.  Some moms and I were talking this morning about dealing with stir-crazy kids in these winter months.  After I brainstormed a bunch of ideas for the FB group, I decided the list would make a great blog post!  I try not to do things the easy way in my blog, so I made a list of 100 activities. 1- breath holding contest to practice for summer swimming 2- cartwheels 3- make a balance board with a board and a can 4- stretch with exercise bands 5- wheelbarrow races down the hallway 6- put on a circus or play 7- paint a picture with your feet 8- handstand contest 9- pretend to be an animal 10- make a ring toss game with paper plates 11- 52 card pick-up 12- push an ice cube with your nose across the kitchen floor 13- play concentration ( instructions ) 14- wresting 15- speed cleaning contest 16- relay races
