Help Your Child Learn from the Pictures
Ask for a clue before accepting an answer
Ask “What did you notice?” A child might point to a trunk, long neck, striped coat or habitat picture. Encourage an explanation in their own words.
Talk about examples rather than absolute rules
Explain that wild animals use many habitats. Not every wild animal lives in a forest or eats meat. An animal can use more than one type of habitat.
Use mistakes to build understanding
Read the feedback together and ask the child to try again. In the quiz, discuss the explanation after submission rather than concentrating only on the score.
Connect the online activities with the worksheet
Use the worksheet download provided on this page for offline practice. Ask your child to describe an animal or draw a simple food-and-habitat connection after completing the online activities.
Practise respectful wildlife observation
Observe with an adult from an appropriate distance and follow local guidance. Record what you see without feeding, touching, chasing or collecting wild animals.

What are wild animals?
Wild animals belong to kinds that have not been domesticated by people. Tigers, elephants, giraffes, zebras and deer are familiar examples. Small frogs, insects and many birds can also be wild animals. Wild does not simply mean large, fierce or dangerous. A tiger cared for in a zoo is still a wild kind of animal.
Where do wild animals live?
Wild animals live in different habitats, including forests, grasslands, wetlands and polar regions. A habitat provides suitable conditions and resources such as food, water, cover and space. Polar bears are associated with the Arctic and sea ice. Zebras are familiar grassland animals. These examples help children understand why “all wild animals live in forests” is an incorrect rule.
What do wild animals eat?
Different animals eat different foods. Elephants eat plant foods such as grass and leaves. Giraffes browse leaves and zebras eat mostly grass. Tigers and lions eat other animals. Children can explore these differences in the food-sorting game and build simple who-eats-what trails using the picture cards.
How do body features help animals?
An elephant uses its trunk to handle food and bring water to its mouth. A giraffe’s long neck helps it reach higher leaves. Tigers and zebras have striped coats, although their colours and body shapes differ. Adult male lions commonly have manes; this feature should not be used to describe every lion.
Using the worksheet with online activities and quiz

Follow up with the Animals Around Us Worksheet for Class 2 to compare animal groups. For a next step, explore the Eating Habits of Animals Class 3 Worksheet.
How can children care for wildlife?
Children can keep surroundings clean, avoid disturbing animals and learn why habitats matter. Protecting plants and water also helps wildlife. Connect this topic with the Uses of Plants Worksheet for Class 2 and discuss how plants provide food and places for animals to live.
