Pet care activities for young children (3-6years)

Hi readers, I know that a lot of people get guinea pigs for young children (3-6years) so I decided to think of some ideas for them to do with their Parent/Carer.

Idea number 1:
Create a checklist. Go here for printables. Especially good for older children.

Idea number 2:
Find pictures of items and accessories and print off to go with a checklist like above for 3-4 year olds. They will learn the names of the objects. Good for children who cant read.

Idea number 3:
Find some cute guinea pig colouring pages. Find some great ideas here. Great for all ages (even over 6's and adults).

I hope you find this helpful,

Book Worm :)

C and C cage facts C & C cages are brilliant indoor options and can be suited to the space in the home or outbuilding. C&C stands for cube grids and coraplast. Cube grids can be expensive but don't really need replacing after you've got them. Coraplast or Correx is corrugated plastic ...
