Family Challenge: Let’s learn about animal tracks. Find a family member to bake cupcakes with. Grab some frosting or make your own because we are going to decorate them with animal tracks.
Have your family member or friend go online and do some research about the tracks that different animals make. If you would like some resources, you can check out the notes for this show.
Now, get to work decorating your cupcakes with frosting tracks. Can you make a bear paw, or a mountain lion print? What about deer, birds, or rabbits?
This is a fun, educational, and delicious way to learn more about animals.
