Setup: Pets are as different as the people who love them. If you hope to have a pet someday, choose the pet that’s right for you—and learn how to keep it happy and healthy. Or find out how to take the best care of a pet you already have!
Activity: It’s time to play Pet BINGO! Brownies (2nd and 3rd graders)—pick one animal from a box and answer the following questions. You can find information in a book, go online, or ask an animal expert.
When you find the answers to the questions above, draw an X on the box. Next, move on to other animals and draw an X on those boxes when you’re done with their questions. You’re finished with the game when you’ve completed one row up, across, or diagonally.
Find out what pet is best for you. Try it now!
