More fun things to do at home!
Read a great book. We love RedRover’s Recommended Books with Humane Themes for preschool, early elementary, and middle-grade readers. Their page is organized by topic, so you can pick what interests you most.
Play a game together. Check out this printable board game from the Animal Welfare Institute and help a pretend dog or cat get the care they need! There is even a black-and-white version you can color yourself for even more fun.
Make some cool crafts for your furry friends. Here is a link to 5 Easy DIY Pet projects: 5 Easy DIY Pet Toys – Craft for Your Local Shelter Day – YouTube. Our shelter kitties always enjoy a new hand-made blanket if you would like to make something to donate.
