Land Water Air Match - Safari and Farm Animals - Simple matching game with sorting cards This activity begins as a simple matching game. There are 12 different animal pairs in the set (24 total). Beginners simply match the animals to their mate. Very young learners can start with 2 or 3 pairs and work their way up to all 12 as their skills increase. The objects are not an exact copy of each other (different colors) so children need to carefully observe details to match correctly rather than relying on color. Includes 24 safari and farm animals (approx 1") - 3 laminated cards professionally printed on 100# cardstock and laminated with 5 mil lamination. The cards are classroom tough. Cards are 4.25"x 2". Sorting cards for land, water and air included. You could also sort by color! Animal replicas measure 1'' - 2.5'' long and are made of soft plastic. Extensions: - The animals can be researched to see how to sort them. - This activity is small enough to take with you and can be extended into pretend play or sensory bins with the mini figurines. - You can have the children sort and categorize the figurines by like traits on their own. (color, short/tall, number of feet ect.)
