{FREE} Plants & Animals in the Tropical Rainforest Biome Cards

By -
Tropican rainforests are full of plants and animals that you don't find anywhere else in the world! These free Plants & Animals in the Tropical Rainforest Biome Cards are a fantastic way to introduce this incredible biome to your kiddos!



 The tropical rainforest biome is SO fun to learn about because it is SO unique!  Plants that don't need soil, animals that live in plants, and so much more!  There are hundreds of thousands plant and animal species that call the tropical rainforest home--there is no way I could possibly include every animal, or even every type of animal in these cards.  However, I have done my best to showcase some of the very cool critters and plants you will find in the Tropical Rainforest biome in the Americas.

 There are tropical rainforests in the Americas, Africa, and Asia, and each has slightly different plant and animal life.  These cards are specific to the Amazon Tropical Rainforest.



What animal is the biggest rodent?
What is the biggest snake?
What gorgeous bird mates for life?
What tree grows over 200 feet tall?
What animal is so loud you can hear it three miles away?
What frog is an excellent dad?

Learn all these fascinating answers and so much more with these {FREE} Plants & Animals in teh Tropical Rainforest Biome Cards!!



What can you do with the cards?  Loads of things!!  The possibilities are endless!

* Put them in a Montessori tray.
* Play Memory or Go Fish!-type games by matching the picture of the plant or animal with its description!
* Use them to visualize and talk about producers and consumers.
* Build a food chain.
* Play Which One is Missing? games!
* Play Which one is different? games!
*Anything else you want!

Science Experiment: Elephant Toothpaste

By -

Update: "Elephant toothpaste" is a science experiment that I used to do with my high school students.  It is a strong multi-sensory demonstration that goes great with a lot of chemistry concepts. It is also very popular with preschoolers and homeschoolers!  The internet loves it too! It has now been read by more than 3.9 million people! This was the post that started the trend on science activity sites across the internet and "irl!"  Thank you for being here...I hope you enjoy it as well!  💕  This exciting science experiment works great in a discussion on reactions, as a demonstration, or as an actual experiment. We've also done seasonal twists with "elephant toothpaste" like making it in a pumpkin and using it for " reindeer toothpaste !" To use it as a science project, perform it once with your child, then ask your child what might happen if you changed the amounts or left out an ingredient.  Any time you experiment...

This sensory lesson includes a kindness activity for kids that is short and sweet,  and makes teaching kindness a beautiful thing! Learning to use kind words with our friends is one friendship lesson that I think we can never cover enough...kids always need reminding (sometimes adults do too)!  You will need these simple supplies for the kindness activity: cotton balls, course sandpaper, cup, Should I Share My Ice-Cream by Mo Willems Directly teaching good friendship skills, like using kind words, serves two purposes: 1- You can refer to the lesson when someone forgets or needs reminding, and 2- These skills are not intuitive for all preschoolers. This is a perfect age to bring empathy and kindness to their attention and help them cultivate these skills! You can use this lesson plan exactly as I did it with our kiddos, or adapt it to fit your group! 1- Read  Should I Share My Ice-Cream  by Mo Willems.   {Image below is an Amazon Affi...

Do you know what color giraffe skin is? Today we're using a capillary action science experiment to make our own giraffe skins in this fun giraffe science experiment project! (Read on...I'll tell you the color in a moment! AND I have a few more fun giraffe facts at the end! Anyway, go on and make a guess before you see the answer!) Fun Spot  Giraffe  Fact:  There are four different giraffe species:  the Masai Giraffe, the Rothschild Giraffe, the Somali Giraffe, and the Nigerian Giraffe.  Each has its own unique spot pattern.  Even more unique, every single individual giraffe has a different spot design.  Just like fingerprints on people and stripes on a zebra, spots on a giraffe are unique in every individual! Giraffe skin is mostly grey. (Were you right?) It's also really tough and thick.  The coat is a shade of tan with brown spots or patches.  Male giraffes actually get darker as they get older! To make our "giraffe ...
