Zoo Train embraces children’s love of going to the zoo! What excitement to see the many animals, hear their sounds, watch their movements, ride the train around the park, and maybe take a ride on the carousel. A trip to the zoo offers a memorable and in-depth, truly multi-sensory experience. This Kindermusik unit was created to capture delightful experiences from the zoo, drawing on the movements, sights and sounds of the animals to inspire musical experiences and the beginning of imaginary play.
