Directions:
1. Show your child by putting a family set of animals, for example, the Daddy Bull, Mommy Cow and Baby Calf on the table.
2. Match it by picking the correct individual family member from the stack of individual animal cards and match with the family card.
3. Encourage your child to try with another set of family members.
Additional Information:
This is a fantastic activity. I saw it from Lori of My Montessori Moments and love it straight away. Joshua tried this some time ago, but wasn't interested. However, on 19.8.2011 (2Y5M19D) he picked this activity himself and successfully matched all the animals.
