Instructions

1. Pick three children to be the animal finders. Whisper in their ear which animal
each one is to find (for example, a cow, duck, and dog). Then, give each
one a location in the room where they should herd the animals.
2. Whisper in the ears of the remaining children the animal sound they are to
make. Try to divide the group evenly into thirds.
3. When you give a signal, the children make their animal sounds and the animal
finders move through the group and separate their animals out and herd
them to the designated location.
4. Continue the game, rotating animal finders and animal sounds.
5. This is an excellent indoor activity for rainy days.
