Hibernation Seasons Activity

The kids favorite thing about our study was our Hibernation Play – hands down! We had seen the bears at our zoo not only prepare for hibernation, but in their den hibernating all winter long last year. This was the highlight of visiting the zoo in the winter! So when I told the kids they were going to prepare to hibernate they didn’t skip a beat. They grabbed chairs & blankets to make their cave. Then they grabbed pillows – because they didn’t have any plants to bring in (I love that they knew what was suppose to be in there). They thought it was great fun!

Weather Worksheets for Kids

We did some fun, preschool type worksheets. We talked about the differences in temperature. We looked at the different temperature in our area throughout the year and even the differences throughout the day!  I really enjoyed the  season book Goofy made. He drew a picture of his favorite thing of the season and then wrote a couple sentences to explain the picture. I love seeing his artistic creations as well as his developing writing skills!
