Choose the Animals

So, we decided to make a winter forest scene and fill it with animal footprints. We rolled play-dough to imitate the snowy ground, and a couple of fallen branches from outside became trees in our landscape. A sheet of blue cardstock formed a frozen lake. Then we chose a few North America animals – the kind that we could find inhabiting a neighbouring forest, if not our yard. There was a deer and a raccoon, a fox and a rabbit, a bear and a beaver.
