Today we learn fun facts while also having fun with the animal quiz! The activity is tailored to children of 3 to 6 years of age.

The activity can be done as a family where everyone is involved in finding the answers and the parents can check off the answers chosen by the team. Older children can also help the little ones, thus fostering mutual aid and sharing of knowledge.

Step 1 : Preparation

The quiz is online on Kahoot. You can take the quiz on a computer, tablet or smartphone.

Prepare your electronic device and workspace. You can play at the kitchen table or by plugging the computer into the TV for a better view of the pictures.

Step 2 : A reward for the winner

Decide on a reward as a family for the winner. It can range from a larger share of dessert to a break from chores. If you don’t like competition, you can always offer a reward to all participants. For example, a big bowl of popcorn for everyone at the family movie night or a picnic in the living room for dinner.

The rules are really up to you!

Diary

On today’s logbook page, kids can document their favorite activity of the day, for example, by drawing their animals from the quiz, or by describing emotions they felt during the quiz. The possibilities are endless!

If your child is documenting alone, you are invited to ask him or her questions to feed and improve the journal entry. Here are some questions you can ask:

  • What did you learn during the quiz?  
  • What is your favorite animal and why? 
  • What did you prefer about this activity? 

Did you know… 

  • …the house mouse may be small (about 10 cm)but that does not mean that does not eat. On the contrary! It feeds 15 to 20 times a day. That’s why she builds her nest near food sources. Here is a fun video about mice. 
  • … The penguin can swim, but it cannot fly. Th Kiwi and the Ostrich are other birds that cannot fly.
  • … Contrary to popular belief, the pig is a very clean animal. It keeps a distance between where it sleeps and where it does its business and avoids dirtying the place where it eats. 

The smallest of the snails is the land snail. It lives in mountain caves. Its size is 2 millimeters, it is blind and its shell is transparent. Have you ever thought about adopting a snail? Here is a little guide.
