Remember, you can be any animal you want. Just use your imagination and move like they do. Animals in action, let’s go!

  • What is your favorite animal to pretend to be, and why do you like moving like that animal?
  • Can you think of an animal that wasn’t mentioned in the article? How would you move if you were pretending to be that animal?
  • Have you ever seen a real animal moving like the ones in the article? Where were you, and what did the animal do?
  1. Animal Movement Parade: Gather your friends or family and create an animal movement parade. Each person can choose their favorite animal from the lesson and demonstrate how it moves. Take turns leading the parade and see if others can guess which animal you are pretending to be. This activity helps you practice different animal movements and have fun with others!

  2. Animal Observation Walk: Go for a walk in your neighborhood or a nearby park with an adult. Look for real animals or signs of animals, like birds flying or squirrels climbing trees. Try to mimic their movements as you see them. Can you find an animal that wasn’t in the lesson? How does it move? This activity encourages you to observe animals in their natural environment and think about how they move.

  3. Create Your Own Animal Dance: Use your imagination to create a dance that combines the movements of different animals from the lesson. For example, you can start by running like a cheetah, then swing like a monkey, and finish by flying like an eagle. Share your dance with your family or friends and see if they can guess which animals you are imitating. This activity helps you use creativity and memory to combine different movements.
