Links to track activities for various grade levels are below in bold red.

This interactive track activity was designed to follow a reading of any of the Twelve Days books. NOTE: We are doing some tweaks so there may be updates in the next month. The tracks are close to actual size. Post the tracks around a room, library, classroom, or bookstore and let the children try to identify these tracks belonging to animals found in North America. Also provided are answer sheet for children and the answer guide. Check out the answer sheet for younger children with pictures plus the picture answer guide.

Don’t want to print out posters and do an abbreviated track activity?

Here is a two-sided worksheet with tracks and animal pictures that doesn’t require you to print out the posters and the answer sheet for this is available, too.

Here is a one-page track activity with a word bank plus the answer sheet.

Look for the bluejay in Twelve Days of Winter! A little chipmunk scampers around in Twelve Days of Summer. In Twelve Days of Autumn, a turtle watches animals prepare for winter. A rabbit hops through the pages of Twelve Days of Spring.

When I read these books to children, I have them shape their hands like binoculars to search for the animals. They can also make binoculars out of toilet paper tubes!
