Last week we took a virtual trip to the Toronto Zoo. I picked some videos from their YouTube channel ahead of time and put them in a presentation for the girls to vote on.
7:00pm: Welcome and Opening
7:10pm: Virtual "Tour"
Here is the presentation with the videos. There are two videos on each slide, and the girls voted on which one they wanted to watch. We had some extra time so we went back and watched some of the videos that we didn't watch the first time around. My favourite is the penguin video.
7:45pm: Animal Add-On
Add-on was one of my favourite drawing games in elementary school, and the great thing about it is that you can play it with pretty much any theme. Here's how to play:
- The person leading the game picks the starting shape (in the case of an animal theme this would be the shape of the body)
- The person leading the game then picks other players to add the other parts of the animal (head, ears, eyes, arms, legs, fins, etc).
- If you have more people that body parts you could also add the animal's habitat and what it eats
Overall this was a really fun and easy meeting, and a great way to work on the Nature Discoveries badge while we are under a stay-at-home order.
