Children will love making penguins by tracing their hands and feet! This craft is a great way to introduce children to describing measurable attributes of objects such as length, using a ruler to measure their hands and feet, and comparing them to others' hands and feet. Also, be sure to read some non-fiction and fiction penguin books together!
