Pretend to walk very carefully through the jungle and mime the actions to suggest each animal. It’s easy to make up more verses for this rhyme.

Walking through the jungle,

What did I see?

A big lion roaring

At me, me, me!

Walking through the jungle,

What did I see?

A baby monkey laughing

At me, me, me!

Walking through the jungle,

What did I see?

A slippery snake hissing

At me, me, me!

Before taping your floor or carpet, test the tape on a small area to make sure it can be easily removed. Leaving the tape on the floor for more than a day may also make it gummy and difficult to remove.

Masking tape

Small cars

Use masking tape on your floor or carpet to create an indoor roadway for small cars. Very young children will enjoy a simple roadway to run their cars along. Older children may enjoy adding parking lots, shops, and schools or accessorizing with dollhouses, toy people, and plastic animals.

Most toddlers have probably tried this on their own at one time or another.

Box of Kleenex

Give your toddler a box of Kleenex and let her pull the Kleenex out one by one. The fun your toddler will have and the time she spends on this will justify the price of the box of Kleenex! If you’d rather not use real Kleenex, stuff a few scarves or pieces of brightly colored tissue paper into an empty Kleenex box and let your child pull those out instead.
