We have been working on a jungle themed activity book for children. We have included lots of activities ranging from designing a jungle character to drawing a hot-air balloon and matching games. Each page is fully illustrated in coloured pencil and digital collage and there is also plenty of space for children to design their own characters.

A drawing activity page. Children can work out the clues to draw the mystery character.

We have experimented with each page layout so that some scenes flow across a double page spread (much like a picture book page) and others are more detailed single pages, packed full of activities.

We wanted to make the activity book playful and a bit quirky, so we have developed two witty animal characters to guide you around the activities. We have made it like a story, with the characters going from one place to another, so each page is different and exciting. We have also included craft activities to get children creative, such a making a mask and designing paper bunting.
