Animal Antics
For heavy work sensory needs
Materials:
Construction paper or cardstock
Glue
Instructions:
-
Download a copy of the Animal Antics Pictures or cut out other pictures of animals.
-
Glue the pictures onto construction paper or cardstock. If possible, laminate the pictures for durability.
-
Lay the pictures on the floor. Have everyone stand on one of the animals. Explain that when they hear the music start, they need to act like the animal they are standing on. When the music stops they need to move quickly and find a different animal to stand on.
-
Play the music and pause for several different animal turns.
-
Let others take turns being the one to pause the music.
Variations:
-
Show the pictures one by one and have everyone act out the actions of that animal at the same time.
-
For a classroom setting, put an animal picture on the back of each child's chair with the child's name on it. Whenever you play music, each child is to act out their animal as they come to their seat. Change the animals daily or weekly.
