Winter Survival Lab | 19-Page Interactive Winter Science & Nature Study | Ages 3–9

How do animals survive winter? ❄️🐿️

Some leave. Some sleep. Some store food. Some grow thicker coats. And some have incredible adaptations that help them face the cold!

Winter Survival Lab is a 19-page interactive Little Roots Learning science and nature study that invites children to investigate what happens to wildlife when winter arrives.

Rather than simply reading about winter survival, your child will experiment, investigate, design, observe, sort, map, research and explore. 🌲

Inside you'll explore:

❄️ How animals know winter is coming

🦆 Migration and seasonal movement

🐿️ Hibernation, torpor and winter rest

🌡️ What happens inside a hibernating body

🧤 How insulation helps animals stay warm

🌰 Food caching and winter memory

🦊 Physical and behavioral adaptations

🏠 Winter shelter engineering

🗺️ Designing a migration route

🔬 Hands-on winter science experiments

🐾 A Winter Wildlife Detective nature investigation

🦉 Wildlife research and problem-solving

🌲 Meet a Winter Survivor research activity

✏️ Final review + Winter Wildlife Scientist certificate

Children will even conduct an insulation experiment, play a food-cache memory game, investigate signs of wildlife outdoors, design winter-ready adaptations, solve wildlife scenarios, and choose a real winter survivor to research.

Designed for ages 3–9, with options throughout for younger learners to draw, point, match or dictate while older learners can write, explain, research and investigate more independently.
