Children learn about the specific habitats where hibernating animals seek refuge during the winter. By matching each animal to its corresponding hibernation place, preschoolers deepen their knowledge of animal behaviors and adaptations.

Using codes, children can color a picture of a hibernating bear. This activity not only allows for creative expression but also reinforces the concept of hibernation and the life cycle of bears.
