In the book Ferdinand Fox’s First Summer, we’re introduced to how young foxes grow up and learn to survive on their own. Although they drink only their mother’s milk when the kits are first born, they eventually have to learn how to hunt and scavenge for food on their own.
Just like us, young kits love to play outside with their siblings and friends in the summer. Gather a few friends together to see if you can complete Ferdinand Fox’s Scavenger Hunt!
Give a bag to each scavenger and see who can collect the most items:
- An acorn
- The biggest leaf you can find
- A long skinny leaf
- A leaf that has been chewed
- A smooth rock
- A rough rock
- A flower
- A twig
- A pine cone
- A clover
- A seed
- A feather
- Pine straw
- A blade of grass
- Something beautiful
Happy scavenging!
