Glue pictures of familiar animals taken from magazines, books or brochures onto card stock or hard material for sturdiness. Encourage children to choose a card and then imitate the movement or sounds of the chosen animal, for example, “Hop like a rabbit.” To make the activity more challenging, add a strip of tape to the floor and encourage the children to walk along it or jump over it.
