Making Storybook Gardens at Wisconsin Dells Educational
11 08 2007Now, let’s talk about how you can make your time at Storybook Gardens in Wisconsin Dells more educational.
This site is definitely geared more toward the little ones, though older kids might also enjoy the experience of feeding the animals. A great way to prepare for a visit to Storybook Gardens in Wisconsin Dells is to read a number of popular children’s books before going (hopefully, you are doing this anyway!). Then, before you read the oversized storybook sitting next to the statues throughout the site, see if your child can guess which story they are from.
If your child is learning how to read, you can challenge your child to read the stories from the storybooks to the rest of the family. Then, you can ask your child to come up with an alternate ending to the story other than the one you already know from the original story.
Since you will be encountering all sorts of animals at the Storybook Gardens, you might also want to do a bit of research about some of the animals beforehand. See if your child can find out how long a giraffe’s tongue is - then experience it first hand when you feed the giraffes on your Wisconsin Dells family vacation!
