Congo River Basin Project Box

Our newest project box is here and we’re traveling to the Congo River Basin to learn all about the habitat of some famous Keystone species! 🦍🌴🐘🐆🦛 The Congo River Basin is an incredibly diverse ecosystem that provides food, freshwater, shelter and medicine for tens of millions of local and Indigenous people, as well as a home to many well-known, and critically endangered animals. Explorers will learn all about these incredible, why they are so important to their ecosystems, and what would happen if they become extinct. 🌍☹️

PROJECT: Kids will create their own amazing mud putty to build their Congo River Basin floor (bonus, it smells like chocolate 🍫😎) and then design their own rainforest scene! 

Book: If Elephants Disappeared

All of our Project Boxes include a detailed Lesson Plan with background information and activity instructions, a relevant book, and most materials needed to complete the activity. For some boxes, there will be some at-home supplies needed.
