Printable Animal Matching Game



I found this Printable Animal Matching Activity (intended for ages 2-4) at Homeschool Share. It is actually a file folder activity (directions to make it into a file folder activity are included) but it was easier for me at the time to cut the pieces out and just use it as a matching game on the table and store it in a ziplock. In this activity, your child matches an animal picture to a zoomed in picture of the animal's body (see the zebra picture above to get the idea). B has fun with it and there are a few that are still pretty tricky for him so we've been playing with this quite a bit! It is worth the printer ink! =)

  1. I saw this on homeschoolshare the other day and have it on my list to do! I am addicted to printing things out, lol. They also have one similar to this of birds that M and I have done. I just love the idea of matching the magnified detail - makes a regular old matching game just a little bit more challenging. Thanks for sharing!!
