World Animals Activities (Montessori Cards, Board Game, Pin Map, Worksheets and more!)
World Animals Unit
Our World Animal Packet is a 100+ page unit includes animals from every continent! It includes worksheets, Montessori 3-Part Cards, Activity Sheets for every continent, beautiful continent cards, a world animal game, world animal pin map activity, and more!
I’ve just added 10 new pages to our World Animals Packet, making it over 100 pages!
If your kids love animals, they are going to have fun with these two new activities! In this fun board game, players race around the game board trying to be the first to collect an animal from each continent. If they are the first to cover all the continents on their player card, they win the game!
My kids have always loved the hands-on nature of pin maps. I added a new set of pages to make your own World Animals Pin Map activity! There is an answer key, so your kids can check their answers to see if they got everything right.
