KIDZOOCATION

Take home Terrarium

We will explore desert & rainforest environments and the plants & animals that inhabit those environments. Kids will enjoy storybooks on the subjects of amphibians & reptiles such as "The Salamander Room", as well as informational childrens’ books on our topic. We will be joined by several of our classroom animals and determine which environment they would call home. Each child will make their choice of a terrarium (rainforest) or desertarium (desert) to take home with live plants & a plastic reptile or amphibian to inhabit their homemade environment.

Topics will include: wet vs. dry environments, reptiles vs. amphibians, adaptations of plants and animals for each environment, terrarium vs. desertarium and how each works.
