Stunning live-action wildlife clips of animals in their natural habitats are combined with heart-warming footage from Disney’s animated classics to introduce youngsters to the world of animals.
Each DVD stars a different animal, offering children detailed information about the animal’s habitat, living conditions, behaviour, diet, survival techniques, and life cycle. All key points are recapped and reinforced during “Quiz Time”.
Aimed at age group 3-7.
Meerkats:
The child will:
- Become familiar with the physical characteristics of meerkats
- Learn how meerkats adapt to their environment
- Be introduced to the behaviour of meerkats and their offspring
Through live-action footage, observe wild meerkats in Africa. Clips from Disney animated movies and TV shows such as Timon and Pumbaa’s Wild Adventures further illustrate key facts about these slim, playful insectivores.
Learn that meerkats aren’t actually related to cats, but are in the mongoose family. Petite meerkats can make tasty snacks for a variety of predators, so they protect themselves by living in colonies. Discover that meerkat sentries guard the colony’s underground burrows and alert fellow colonists when predators approach. Also learn that meerkat babysitters keep the kittens from wandering while their parents are foraging for food.
Two short, fun quizzes help children focus on what they’ve learned.
