The tapir hung a calendar on the wetland tree! Each column is a day of the week. Tap the days we ask for.

Bigger challenges and the party that reviews everything the child learned.

All the faces
Each flat side of a solid is a face, and each face leaves a print in the mud. Turn the solid and stamp all the different prints.

Animals in the loops
The tapir's friends want to play in the loops! Think about what each animal is like and where it lives to find the right place.
