🦘 Teaching Tip from a Montessori Guide

The magnifying glass transforms this from a simple matching game into genuine scientific observation. Children notice fur patterns, feather details, and skin textures they'd never see with the naked eye. This is exactly how real naturalists study animals—paying close attention to small details.
