Looking for something quiet and screen-free for an animal-loving kid? This Zoobooks activity sheet is a free printable with prompts about hippos. It pairs with the Ranger Rick Zoobooks Hippos magazine and works just as well on its own as a stand-alone activity. Print a copy, set out some pencils, and let curiosity take over.
Inside, you will find a word search puzzle, a crossword puzzle, and an activity about hieroglyphic symbols. Each page is designed to nudge kids toward thinking about these animals more closely.
A few ways to use it:
- Slip a page into a folder for a quiet-time bag at restaurants or appointments.
- Print double-sided to save paper if you are handing out copies to a group.
- Hold one page back as a small reward at the end of a busy day.
