Shadow Creators Minibeasts

Our Shadow Creators Minibeasts are perfect for fun indoor and outdoor activities, providing children with opportunities to explore how light creates different shadow shapes. They can even trace the shadows, helping to develop their fine motor skills. This playful activity also supports language development as kids talk about the different animals and their shadows, making it a great addition to any preschool setting.

Using natural sunlight, torches, a light panel, or an overhead projector to cast the images of the three animals onto the floor, children will be fascinated by how light sources produce varying shadows and how the distance from the light changes these shapes.

Ages: 12+ months.
