Imaginative Play Scene: Zoo

Since buying artificial grass for a play scene, the children and I have found heaps of ways to use it for play. This is a Zoo Play Scene, put together with animal figurines we already had around the house. How fun would it be to combine a trip to the zoo with a play activity at home!

Materials

Under-bed storage container

Artificial grass (under $15 from Clark Rubber or Bunnings)

Wooden Blocks (or fences)

Rocks & sticks

Zoo Animial Figurines

Plastic container filled with water and a drop of blue food colouring

Big Cats

Rocks.

Reptiles

Pebbles.

Marine

A rock and a plastic container filled with water and a drop of blue food colouring.

Elephant

A stick.

Giraffe

Thinking about it now, I think we might add a section of a branch for this enclosure.
