If you’re a parent who’s ever sat through an episode of the TV show Wild Kratts, you know how entertaining and educational it can be. The show is all about animals, and the adventures Chris and Martin Kratt go on to learn more about them.
What you may not know is that there are some fun DIY projects you can do at home with your kids based on the show. Today we’re going to share with you one of our favorites – making your own Wild Kratts creature power discs!
My sons are in love with Wild Kratts. That is okay with me. Wild Kratts ignites a desire for them to learn more about zoology and botany.
I am confident this curiosity will carry with them into adulthood. Recently I made Wild Kratts Creature Power Discs for them. My four-year-old son helped out with these projects.
Quite frankly I am just happy my boys wanted to make Wild Kratts Creature Power Discs and not creature power suits.
Yes, you read the title correctly. I am not the craftiest blogger. I get an A for effort.
