Terrific Toddlers: Winter Tracking

Description

Animals hop, waddle, bound, and pad, and every way of moving leaves a different mark. Now you can learn to tell them apart!

After trying out a few animal moves indoors, head outside to search for real footprints, scat, fur, and feathers in snow, mud, and soft ground. You will look at what a single print can tell you, from how many toes an animal has to which direction it was headed.

Learning how to track turns any outdoor walk into a treasure hunt that can be repeated all winter long.
