Hedgehog potato

I recently have fallen in love with hedgehogs! One in particular! He is so beautiful and gives the best hugs. Yes, surprisingly!

What does your child know about hedgehogs?

What is a baby hedgehog called?

Why are they called hedgehogs?

How many spikes do they have?

Just remember that hedgehogs are lactose intolerant, so milk should never be given to them. Water is perfectly fine.

This activity is great for learning about nature/hedgehogs and fine motor skills.
