A Virtual Field Trip to the Rainforest Jungle

One thing that can be fun to do with your child when you can’t actually travel to a specific destination is to take a virtual field trip there together.  Summer Vacation is the perfect time to try it out.  I’m put together a selection of video about the rainforest and songs about the rainforest that are teacher approved and mom approved for your child.

Rainforest Songs for Kids

Take a peek at this adorable songs that highlight jungle animal activities for kids that are mom approved. One thing you may want to discuss are some of the stereotypes for jungle animals and how really lives in which region.

Discussing words like jungle, forest, safari, desert, plains can help them to understand the various types of ecosystems on our planet earth.
