i had a bunch of animal cards that we use for sorting, classifying, etc. i decided to sacrifice a few of them to make realistic zoo cages.
we had a discussion of zoo rules that we know about or that we think should exist. we talked about why animals are in cages which led to a broader discussion of respecting animals. then we went outside and chose some animals to put in cages.
this is simply taking an animal card, cutting off the name, gluing on the animal card, gluing bars over it, adding the animal name. insta-zoo!

I found my way to your site via http://www.playingbythebook.net. The theme for my blog next week is zoos and aquariums. If it is okay with you, I’m going to link to this post as this is a great idea.

Love this insta-zoo idea! I believe I have some items my grandkids could use to do this next time they’re here. =)
