Use plain old paper to make these fantastic Folded Paper Animals or a sweet Paper Heart Penguin.

Get together with siblings to make an Elmer inspired Elephant Collage.

If you love STEAM Activities then you are going to LOVE this book:

Available as an E-BOOK or PRINT VERSION.

Get inspired over at the petting farm and make a cute Cupcake Liner Duck or sponge painted Sheep when you get home.

Use pegs/clothespins to make some Clothespin Animals, you could even build a small world zoo for them.

We love crafting with paper plates! See how to make a Tiger, Peacock, Elephant, Tortoise, Snake and Koala.

Paper Bags are also great to craft with AND you could use them as hand puppets afterwards! Have a go at this Penguin or Hippo or step into the aquarium and make a Paper Bag Octopus.
