• Designed for kids ages 2+ • Toddlers trace 24 animals in 3 environments • Cute animations, animal sounds, and lots of balloons! This simple yet fun game is an excellent way to introduce children to tracing. Your children will love watching the animals come to life as they progress through the connect-the-dot style tracings. Trace the body, next the head, then the feet, and continue on until the whole animal is traced. Completed animals are placed in their home environments where they can be interacted with. *How to Play* First, choose an animal. Second, trace each body part until the whole animal is traced. Finally, pop the balloons and place the animal in its home environment (jungle, farm, or grassland). *Simple Tracing* Children trace animals by connecting the balloons together. This is done by dragging the trace line from one balloon to the next. Several visual cues will help your child know which balloons to connect. *24 Animals* Trace the animals your children love, including: cat, dog, duck, elephant, horse, monkey, owl, turtle, and many more.
