3D Animal in Your Space
3D Animal in Your Space
View an animal in your space! Go to Google (on your cell phone) and type any animal into the search engine. We tried "panda" and "dog" (elephant and zebra weren't available). Scroll down until you see the "View in 3D" option. Click on that. The animal appears in your room! Your child can pet and feed the animal. Pretty cool! You can discuss the animals to introduce new vocabulary. For "lion", you can talk about the lion's mane, fierceness, predator, and prey.
