We found a great disc at the library called Going to the Zoo, St Clair Entertainment Group Inc., 2002 which has all animal songs sung by a variety of children’s performers (Fred Penner; Sharon, Lois and Bram; Sandra Beech; Al Simmons; Bob King; Jack Grunsky; Bob McGrath; and Norman Foote)
Email us at familythemedays@gmail.com if you have any suggestions for modern songs about animals.

World Wildlife Day is celebrated on March 3rd but any day is a good day to learn about the many creatures of the world.
This is a broad theme day which can be easily suited to your child’s interest depending on which animals you focus on. My eldest son liked anything that was labelled dangerous!
Print out theFamily Theme Day Planner and decide which activities you’d like to do and in what order.
