Tigers Roar!!

Today Alyvia learned all about Tigers.  We learned interesting facts, read tons of books and even dressed up as tigers.  We got out the masking tape and measured 9 feet on the carpet to show how long an adult tiger can grow to be.  Lyvi now knows that tigers are mammals, carnivores, the largest cats in the world, they have 100-150 stripes and live in Asia.  We learned that to be a mammal means that you have a back bone, are warm blooded and most of them have hair or fur.  Baby tigers are called cubs, female tigers are called tigresses.  She is so smart and really enjoyed her science lessons today.
