Teach Georgia Habitats? Lesson Plan Ideas

Are you a teacher that is about to teach habitats in the classroom... even more specifically, are you teaching Georgia habitats? We have the perfect follow-up activity for your students. Have every child make a stuffed animal. When they are finished, have them fill out one of our habitat zoo keeper cards. See our website at www.stuffazoo.com for all the details. This is a great ' go out with a bang' activity to end your unit, or it's even a great end-of-the-year activity that is content related and fun. This stuffed animal activity has been very successful in many elementary schools.

Make a Bear

Happy New Year to You from Stuff a Zoo! Another year, another birthday!

The new year brings lots of birthday celebrations. Finding that extra special birthday idea is only a click away. We have had much success over the past several years with our home birthday parties. Why? Becuase we offer everything needed to make a bear at home. It is really that simple. You order and we ship it right to your door. Plus, we offer some creative birthday ideas that you just can't find with other bear stuffing companies. For starters, we are the only company that offers the Official Zoo Keeper card instead of the standard birth certificate. Included with your order is a pack of crayons to fill out and color the Zoo Keeper Card. On top of that, we created the original Bake 'n Bear Birthday where the kids get to "Stuff a Zoo ... Bake a Cake, too!" With these birthday packs, all kids get to make a bear or other zoo animal, bake a cake and decorate it, decorate a t-shirt, and get creative with our coloring sheets available on our website for free.

We are pleased to say that we have many happy customers all over the United States and Canada. We would be honored to add you to our list. Thank you for considering us for your make-a-bear needs.

Stuff your own animal. You are the Zoo Keeper!

Here at Stuff a Zoo, it's not just about stufffing your own animal. It's about getting to know your animal. At our zoo, each child becomes the Official Zoo Keeper. That's right! There is no more 'birth certificate' or 'adoption paperwork'. Our documents show you (the stuffer) as the Official Zoo Keeper of the adorable new stuffed animal. We have taken our original Zoo Keeper Card to a whole new level by allowing your child to evaluate their new animal's habitat. We focus on words such as habitat, species, and survival, which takes on a more educational approach. On the back of each card, there are two sections. Your child will be able to draw and color their animal in its natural habitat and in its zoo habitat. It even asks your child what their new stuffed animal will need to survive. Each stuffed animal kit comes with a pack of four crayons.
