100+ pages of Arctic Animals Activities to Ease Your Winter Lesson Plan
Of all the Polar Animals we’ve met, the kids love Penguin the most.
Wait a second; I think they prefer the narwhal. Or the walrus?
Never mind, it’s all of the Polar Arctic Animals because all of them are super cute.
We once went to an animal shelter and were amazed at how big a Polar Bear is, like gigantic big.
And when it swims, WHOA! It’s as if you put a Polar Bear in a swimming pool; the whole water would splash out.
If you’re planning for fine motor centers, this Polar Arctic Animals activity packet is perfect for you.
