Track It
Observe and investigate as you search for animal tracks outdoors.
Print this page, trace the animal tracks, and then head outside together to see if you can spot any tracks along the sidewalk, at a park, or even on a tree. If you find some tracks, use this page as a guide to figure out which animal might have made them. Do they look like dog tracks? Could they be tracks from a bird?
Write, draw, and talk about what you observe. You might also take a picture of the tracks and find out which animal made them by looking them up online or in the library.
