Draw a spiral line starting at the edge of the plate and ending in the middle. Have the children color their plate to look like a coiled snake. Cut along the line so that the snake unwinds.
Draw an outline of a tiger on an orange piece of construction paper. Put it in the bottom of a shallow box and tape it down. Put some black paint into the corners of the box and drop in a few marbles. Let the children tilt the box back and forth so the marble creates the tiger's stripes.
Have your children draw or color pictures of jungle animals. Make binoculars by taping together two toilet paper tubes. Tape the drawings up in different places all around the room and let the children go on a safari to find the animals.
Trace each child's foot and both of his hands on construction paper. Cut them out and glue them onto a separate piece of paper so that the foot makes the body of the parrot and the hands make the wings. Let the children draw on the eyes, beak and feet. Glue on feathers to add color.
