Make the most of your Christmas trip to the Zoo!

I  teach at a Co-op with kids from large families.  Every trip is a big deal.  Make the most of your trip to the Zoo!  Our plans include a trip to a zoo over the Christmas break.  Plan to create a family album and educational lapbook: Zoo Lapbook,  Zoo Unit Study, and Zoo Animals.  Include sketches.  Take loads and loads of pictures.  Let the kiddos complete worksheets: At the Zoo I Saw, My Day at the Zoo, San Diego Zoo Wildlife Explorers, or Zoo Tampa’s packet with loads of activities.  Download a zoo scavenger hunt: Zoo Tampa, National Zoo, and this generic Zoo Scavenger Hunt. The San Diego Zoo’s Curriculum has loads and loads of follow-up ideas: habitats, books to read, animals and their offspring, etc.  Zoos cost a fortune.  Make the most of this fun trip!  If grandparents are hosting your family, ask Nana and Pop-pop to work with the kids on their lapbook project.  Tell your kiddos to show their grandparents how much they learned.
