12 Chinese Zodiac for the New Year
12 Chinese zodiac
Through the pairing of 12 zodiac animals, let children know the 12 animals in the 12 zodiac signs and their arrangement order.
The 12 zodiac signs include 12 kinds of animals, namely: rat, cow, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog, and pig.
Print out two sets of pictures of the 12 zodiac signs and cut them out of plastic. One set is pasted on a paper box and the other is pasted on a popsicle stick.
The children exercise their observation skills through matching operations.
You can also add Chinese characters to allow children to recognize the Chinese names of the 12 zodiac signs. You can also pair Chinese character cards with animal pictures, which is suitable for children of N2-K2 to learn and use.
Young children can not only know all kinds of animals, but also understand the traditional Chinese New Year culture.
