The Jungle Book Movie Night
It’s a king of the jungle type of #Movienightfriday, swinging in with fun of Jungle animals in The Jungle Book set in India.
We began by mapping out where India is on the map. Then we read The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling on audible.


We then made traditional Indian meals and explored Indian culture through books, music and virtual tours.
We had so much fun also singing along with the movie and dancing because thats what us Disney Peeps do.
