#BABY ANIMALS MATCHING HOW TO#

Learn more about Montessori at Home or School: How to Teach Grace and Courtesy! Thank you to Angelique Felix or organizing the blog hop! Please see Angelique’s World Animal Day 2014 post for links to all the participating blogs and posts about children loving animals. I’m excited to be joining eight other kid bloggers in a blog hop celebrating World Animal Day. I only used the part of the card with the picture for the baby/toddler activity. Here’s the link to my favorite laminator … it’s inexpensive but works very well. With a baby or toddler, I definitely recommend laminating any card materials. I printed out and laminated the free farm animal nomenclature cards from Montessori for Everyone. I used some farm animal Beanie Babies for this activity. I removed the tags to make them safe for a baby. I sorted the Beanie Babies into themes so that I could create a few activities with them.

My kids collected Beanie Babies at one point … not obsessively but enough that we have a box full of Beanie Babies.

Schleich farm animals would be perfect for this activity as long as they’re animals that are too large to fit through a toilet paper tube (to be safe for babies and toddlers who still mouth objects).

Since Zoey lives in San Diego and doesn’t have many opportunities to see farm animals other than the ones that are at the zoo, I decided to make an animal activity focusing on farm animals in honor of World Animal Day October 4.ĭisclosure: This post contains affiliate links at no cost to you. She also loves watching the animals at the zoo. She doesn’t have a pet, but she loves seeing dogs during our walks around the neighborhood. My granddaughter, Zoey, is now 10 months old and loves animals. Singing “Old MacDonald” and saying animal sounds with babies and toddlers is always fun, so I decided to prepare a Montessori-inspired farm-animal matching and vocabulary activity for a baby or toddler.
