Who this list is for
This animal habitat flipbook craft list is for 9-year-olds comparing several habitats in an interactive paper project. It includes the materials for pages, labels, pictures, and movable tabs.
How to use this list
Use heavyweight cardstock sheets as the main pages and colored construction paper for habitat sections. Place animal picture printouts and habitat map printouts where they match the page topic. Write facts or labels on index cards with fine-tip black markers and colored pencils. Build movable tabs with brads with round heads, double-sided tape, glue sticks, rulers, pencils, and child-safe scissors.
Common mistakes
Do not attach every animal picture printout before deciding which habitat page it belongs on. Keep brads with round heads away from page edges so tabs can turn without tearing. Avoid gluing over the moving parts; use double-sided tape or glue sticks only where the pages and labels should stay fixed. Make labels readable rather than covering the pages with too many small pieces.
What is on this list
You will need heavyweight cardstock sheets, colored construction paper, animal picture printouts, habitat map printouts, and index cards. Brads with round heads, glue sticks, double-sided tape, fine-tip black markers, colored pencils, rulers, pencils, and child-safe scissors complete the flipbook. Cross off supplies you own.
Before you go
Choose the habitats before printing animal pictures and maps. Sort each printout into its page group, then plan where tabs and index-card labels will move. Keep the brads together until the tab assembly step.
