Shark Head Printable Craft
This shark craft is simple, but fun, and is perfect for any little shark-lover. Unlike our other shark crafts, this one features just a head with the mouth wide open. To be honest, the end product came out a little funnier than intended because of the eyes, but we can pretend he’s fierce and scary, […]
Zebra Shark Printable Craft
When searching for animals for our Endangered Animals unit, I came across the zebra shark. Though the zebra shark is Threatened and not Endangered, I thought it would be a good addition to the unit. Lorelai was a bit surprised that the ZEBRA shark has spots and not stripes. That’s when I informed her that […]
Printable Shark Craft
I have to comment on the hair first. Lorelai got some colorful hair ties in her Easter basket and last night before bed she asked me to make her hair into ‘rainbow hair’. This is what I came up with. Upon first seeing it, she exclaimed, “I look like a NEW princess!” =) Anyway, onto […]

A-Z Endangered Animal Crafts
Welcome to our Endangered Animals unit round-up page, where you will find animals categorized alphabetically from A-Z. There were some letters that didn’t have an endangered animal, so I filled those in with animals from the Threatened or Vulnerable categories. Definition of an endangered animal: An endangered species is a population of organisms which is […]
Vaquita Printable Craft
When researching different endangered animals for our Endangered Animals Unit, I came across the rare Vaquita. The vaquita also happens to be the National Marine Animal of Mexico — which fits in with our Around the World Series: Mexico as well! Anyway, the Vaquita is a very small cetacean that only grows to be 5-feet […]

Printable Barracuda Craft
This is another one of Lorelai’s picks from her animal encyclopedia. I didn’t have high hopes for the barracuda, but I think they turned out pretty cute! This printable is very simple. There aren’t a ton of parts to cut out. I decided to leave it basically whole except for the eye. On each printable, […]
Printable Seal Craft
A big thanks to Shark Week for giving me the idea to make a seal! You can find a printable shark here, in case you’re interested! How cute is Lorelai’s rainbow seal? She got some new watercolors today and wanted to give them a go. She couldn’t just use one color, of course! She chanted […]

Printable Hippo Craft
Who doesn’t love a cute hippo? Nevermind that they actually kill more people each year than sharks. They’re still pretty cute, especially purple ones!
