My favorite toy growing up was my "Elly".  She was made of grey wash cloths...
I loved her ears right off, but she still has her red felt nose after all these years.
Yes, I still have my elephant after fifty plus years! She was a great comfort to
me. Here are some Montessori elephant, jungle and Africa themed materials.

Update on Human Anatomy Resources

Montessori Research and Development (R&D) has these new
beautiful cards in both Primary and Elementary levels. My only
suggestion is to find a nice take apart model to go with each.

Sorting Cards for Biology

The pictures from the former post (below) would be great for
making cards for sorting. Here is a really wonderful
post describing how to create and use cards for biology
and takes you through the steps of living/ non-living and
then the classification of zoology.
It is worth the read through the post!

Great Free Botany and Zoology Pix

My favorite nature site is back blogging and posting.
She's actually been busy photographing an entire book
soon to be published. Many pictures are up online
and would be great to make matching, sorting, or three part cards.
Just go to any of her titles from this page and click:
