Free Printables: Zoo Activities and Books

Books by theme is a page on Ready. Set. Read featuring great books for every occassion. Whether you are going to the zoo, the beach, or the farm, you might want to consider bringing a book along with you. I have been working to create lists and reviews of books by preschool theme on my book adventures page. I am happy to announce that I am adding a new feature to this portion of Ready. Set. Read!  I am creating thematic printable packs to go with each theme.  My first printable pack is zoo activities for preschool. In celebration of this new adventure, it is FREE!  The purpose of these packets is for families to use them during the summer to continue learning in a fun way. I designed them multilevel for families who have children from young toddlers to early readers. In each printable pack, I've included a book list which is divided into three sections: toddler, preschool, and early reader. Although children of any age may enjoy all of the books, I hope this gives you a good place to begin when selecting appropriate books for your child. The book lists will also be linked to my blog and are always FREE on my books by theme page.

What's included in the Zoo Activities for Preschool Pack

• Recipe for zoo animal cookies
• Animal movement cards and directions for playing the animal movement game

• Farm or zoo animal sorting game with directions and all the pieces you need to play the game.
• Animal Number sort- you will need a die to play this math game. All of the directions are included in the printable pack.

• A Zoo scavenger hunt worksheet to take along on your zoo trip-- and keep your kids engaged and occupied.

• Early reader books- I've included two levels of early reader books.
• Zoo journal pages for recording your memories of your zoo trip. I've included pages for children from drawing stage to traditional writing stage.
