    Penguin Activities

    Whenever we go to the zoo, one of the first places we like to go is over to the penguins. With those tiny feet and the side-to-side waddle, they seem to have so much personality! Who can resist? So, we’re throwing a peppy penguin party!

    We’ve put together a fun and comprehensive activity pack full of all things black, white, and adorable penguins all over. This printable pack has all kinds of activities to celebrate penguins and even has some sheets to let you sneak in a little learning too (shhh…don’t tell the kids!).

    Penguin Life Cycle

    You and your kids can learn all about a penguin’s life cycle, like how and where they lay eggs and how they survive harsh arctic climates. With easy-to-understand graphics and text, these printable pages take kids along the journey from penguin egg, to chick hatching and up through the adult penguin’s life (and the drawings are super cute!).

    Because penguins are so unusual – they are one of the only bird species that are flightless and semi-aquatic – kids are naturally curious about these creatures. This pack covers all aspects of penguin life with interesting facts and details to keep kids interested (like the fact that they feed their chicks regurgitated food).

    While there are different kinds of penguin species, one of the most popular is the emperor penguin. These are the tallest and heaviest penguins on earth. These social animals use their waterproof feathers and one another to help stay warm. In the winter months (December, January, and February) they often huddle together while in the summer they spread out a bit.

    Penguin Facts For Kids

    Your kids will learn those female emperor penguins play a particularly important role. After they lay eggs, they head out to find food for the family. If the egg hatches without her, the male penguins help to keep the chicks warm in a brood pouch. When the females return, the male transfers the chick back to the mother’s brood pouch.  

    Not only is learning about penguins fun for kids, but it also sparks valuable discussions about the importance of community and the contributions of each family member.

    Kids are great at drawing connections back to their own lives and this useful penguin life cycle pack will help encourage them to do so. You can also help them draw connections between penguins and other animal species.
