Animal Tracks


A hands-on introduction to learning all about Animal Tracks


How to set up an easy track provocation to let children self-explore:

  • Include a variety of animals for children to use as ‘stamps’ to make tracks

    (ex. snake to show their unique footless track, birds to show two claw prints, bears to show big prints and nails, lizard to show four feet and a tail, etc.)

  • Provide different surfaces for the animals to track through

    (ex. snow, dirt, mud, water, and sand all in different containers or trays for play)
