Snow Hikes

What to do:

  1. Take a snow hike around the neighborhood.
  2. Look for places that animals might live: in trees, under porches, in special houses, on the ground, or in the ground.
  3. Ask children to predict what type of animal might live in each place and talk about what the animal might eat during the winter.
