Today in Piney Ridge, Lilly, Otto, and Dougie found an injured Marbled Murlett named Missy and decided to help take her to the ocean to reunite with her family.

Parents, feel free to engage with your kiddos using some pf the prompts from below.

• What are herbivores?
  • Animals that only eat plants
• What do you call animals that eat mostly meat?
  • Carnivores
• Are people carnivores, herbivores, or omnivores?
  • Omnivores because we eat both plants and meat
• Which of the Piney Ridge villagers are carnivores?
  • Lilly the cat, Otto the otter, Tec the owl, Sally the salamander, Humpy the salmon, Puma the mountain lion
• Which of the Piney Ridge villagers are omnivores?
  • Dougy the squirrel, Rico the raccoon, Posie the opossum, Tutu the turtle
• Which of the Piney Ridge villagers are herbivores?
  • Bev the beaver and Clover the bunny

For today’s activity, let’s make a list of herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores! Grab 3 sheets of paper and at the top of each one write an animal category. Next find old workbooks or magazines with pictures of animals, or print out pictures, then have your child cut out the pictures. Lastly, have them glue the picture onto the correct page
