In the forest, in the pond, in caves, prairies, and jungles, in all the world’s outdoor classrooms, baby animals are learning just like our babies. 🙂

Preschool Activities – Walk like a Penguin

Walking like a penguin is a fun activity that the kids love. We used these indoor snowballs to pretend they were Eggs and we protected them while we waddled around as penguins do. A great gross motor activity for your penguin lessons.

One thing I love about Homeschooling is getting all of my children involved no matter their age. Notebooking pages are my go-to for notebooking printables for the boys. They have thousands of ideas, maps, coloring pages, and more. This Antarctic Map and Penguin page were perfect to add to our lessons.
