Keeper Kids Victorian Grassland Earless Dragon activities

Foster your child's love of wildlife through connection with the wonders of their natural world. Learn about animal families, through craft and play.

Nature Play

Let's create a finger puppet of our very own Grassland Earless Dragon!

Now, imagine taking this adorable lizard out for an adventure filled with imagination and exploration.

What might your lizard spy out in the outdoors? Perhaps you can play make-believe, turning leaves and rocks into delicious treats for your little dragon companion!

Craft

Let's create a meerkat maze!

First, you will need a dice, and some counters (you can use rocks or buttons).

The baby meerkats need to get home to their den, help them get home safely! 

Will you land on an anthill to climb up, or slide back down a log? See if you can eat some delicious food like scorpions or spiders on your way. But beware to hide from eagles and jackals.

Happy playing! 

Make sure you come and see us in Keeper Kids at Melbourne Zoo for new and engaging wildlife activities.
