| My personal favorite PANDA cam! |
What child doesn't love animals, for that matter what adult doesn't like animals!! Even if people don't like all animals, they have one type of animal that makes their heart go ~AWE!! SO I thought that I would share some of our favorite sites,etc. on the subject of animals!! Feel free to shout right back with any of your favs!!
We are a family of watchers here.... OK maybe that sounds wrong but it is true, HA! So we have a ton of sites that we rotate thru spending time watching all the animal cams out there. I love this one for zoo animal cams, this is one for an African animal cam by the old watering hole, our favorite owl "Molly" famous web cam (well famous to us!), and yes even goat cams that we recently found out about!!LOL Friends were waiting for these goats to even birth on the 24 hour web cam! I think our favorite right now is the African web cam, we have seen lots of animals that the boys love in their natural habitat.
Then come the animal educational sites, and oh the amount of sites I could list from online animal games to educational sites like WWF and National Geographic (two of our favorites) to animal activist sites that need your help to save one animal species at a time. One such place that we would love to visit is the Australia Zoo, once the stomping ground of the famous Steve Irwin. Hubby and I first saw this guy with his new wife Terry back in the 90s, we both were hooked by his style of getting involved with the crocs!
Lastly, here are a couple of great sites that offer a wide range of animal unit studies. Discovery Kids, has some great animal lesson plans for k-12; Secular Homeschool, has some great secular animal unit studies that members of the site have shared; Farm animal lessons for Pre-k is a fun one for those of you with younger kiddos; The Humane Society has some great free pet lessons and then there is Switcharoo Zoo creative writing lessons with some great animal prompts.
So what are doing to nourish your animal lover?
