Underground Animal Theme Resources

Our letter U theme was underground animals. Today I’m sharing some resources for teaching kids about underground animals.  There are teachers’ guides, book-related projects, crafts and a snack to give you a little inspiration for your own underground animal theme. If you have or know of any other ideas for this theme, I hope you’ll share them in the comments.
