Activities
At Oregon Scientific, we take pride in developing learning products parents can depend on to help their
children learn in fun ways. Your SmartGlobe™Jr. will give your child a firm base in geography and
general knowledge, which will only grow.
We have come up with a few suggestions to help guide you in building on that natural curiosity and developing
that ever strong bond between parent and child. Explore with your child the wonderment that is the world!
Discussion points
World Animals
Animals have been carefully selected to show the diversity of the animal kingdom and
fun facts narrated by Oree are sure to leave a lasting impression on your child.
Habitats and weather conditions:
Your child will learn that animals live in different habitats around the world.
Below are a select few with brief descriptions:
Desert - The Sahara Desert can get very hot, but it can also get very cold at night! It is hot and dry.
Rainforest - receives the most rainfall in the world. It is hot and humid.
Forest - has many trees which provide great homes and food for many animals.
Mountain - a landform that extends above ground. Most of the world's major rivers are fed from
mountain sources!
Savannah - a stretch of grassland where many grazing animals live.
Arctic Circle - a very cold place where some people inhabit.

Zoo Trip:
Go on a trip to the local zoo. Point out to your child the special things zoo keepers have done to make
the animals feel at home. Examples include perches for birds, branches with ropes for monkeys,
colder temperatures for animals from the polar regions, and warmer temperatures for amphibians.
The amazing body:
Different animals are good at doing different things, such as kangaroos at jumping, penguins at
swimming. Ask what your child can do, with his/her body.
Turn it into something fun by placing the words in the song “When you're happy and you know it.” You can
substitute ‘clap your hands’with: stomp your feet, skip to the beat, hop around, jump about, dance with joy,
jog along, walk about, sprint to me. Please ensure there is plenty of space for your child.
Pretend play:
Develop your child's imagination, role-playing skills, introduce new verbs and revise what was
learnt by using the game “Simon says”. Examples include “jump like a kangaroo”,
“dance like a crane”, “hug like a koala”, “wobble like a penguin”, “soar like an eagle”.
Build on this and include other animals like “hoot like an owl”, “buzz like a bee”, “prowl like a tiger”.
Sights
Natural and man-made sights are equally important. Apart from being tourist attractions,
these sights often symbolise a country's ideologies, and history.
Discuss about sights with your child. These don't have to be famous landmarks,
but can also be local sights or places they enjoy visiting.
The rainforest really is a treasure trove of animals, insects and plants. Discuss with your child about the
different animals that live there. Some exciting examples include the ocelot, cougar; sloth, anteater, tapir, bats,
anaconda, strawberry poison frog (one of the smallest frogs in the world), macaws, egret, and piranha.
