This is our Unit Studies shelf with activities to help children explore what animals do in winter.
Here’s our setup for making animal tracks in playdoh.
A little glitter in the white playdoh can make the work even more attractive. I used the animals from our North America box for this activity.

Matching Animals to their tracks – a free printable from Montessori for Everyone. MFE has a wealth of great freebies at this link!
More animal tracks. This is a hand-me-down set I received.
Bear in a Cave craft. I adapted this idea from one I found here.
To add an additional opportunity for fine motor practice, the children pin punched the outline of the bear rather than cutting it out.
These are some 3-part cards we made of local winter birds. It’s fun to use these when we learn how to make the bird calls.
