I have tons of plastic animals but I don't really know which animals go with which continents. I don't want there to be overlap and confuse the kids. Is there a website or another source someone can recommend?
Thank you very much.
Karen

Hi Karen,
I like this site, and it helped me get my continent boxes organized with our toob animals. HTH!

Hi Everyone,
Jennifer kindly gave me a great site for looking at native animals, but for Europe, it mostly focused on breeds of dogs. Can anyone tell me some animals that are native to Europe and that don't overlap other continents??? Thanks so much.

Since Europe is actually physically connected to the other continents of the eastern hemisphere it is a challenge to find animals that are unique only to Europe, unless you were to look at the United Kingdom, or Ireland perhaps. You might be able to find some, and if you do I'd love to hear about it!

We focused instead on different foods, way of dress, homes, other cultural particulars unique to Europe.

I hope some other ladies jump in here and tell us what they did with their continent boxes that might help you out with Europe. I know you were specifically asking about your toob animals, but I thought a link to this thread on continent boxes might help you. It's long and I haven't read through it all in a while, but you might find some more there to help with your animals.

Here are the files I made to go with my toob animals of the 7 continents, I'm not sure if these would be helpful, I got ideas for which animals to put where from a game we have called Geo photo safari.
