Guess the animal......
These cards were purchased from an educational catalogue. However ideas are always given to the parents within my role on how to make something similar as they cannot always get hold of items we use. Plus it's about having a go at making your own and having fun along the way.
You could use pictures from magazines etc or the internet and then laminate them to make the cards last longer.
Note: The cards have a picture of the animal on one side and a picture of their patterned skin on the other. This becomes a game in itself as your child has to guess the animal.
These cards are used to develop:
* Language skills
* Social skills / turn taking
* Pattern skills
* Colour skills
Plus much more.
A great resource to look at and discuss animals in many ways.
