D.: in white
Q: Why do you think?
D.: So that the fox and the wolf don’t notice him
V.: Correct. (The teacher shows two birds with one stone, one gray, the other white) Guys, look, I have two hares, one is gray, the other is white. The bunny wears a gray coat in summer and a white coat in winter. Tell me what color is the snow?
D.: White
V.: That’s right, that’s why a bunny wears a white fur coat in winter so that the wolf and fox don’t find him; it’s easier for him to hide in a white fur coat. Look, if we put a hare in a white fur coat on white snow in winter in the forest under a Christmas tree, will the fox be able to find him? (The teacher places the figure of a white hare on a white sheet of paper).
V.: and in gray? (The teacher places the figure of a gray hare on a white sheet of paper).

Result: Guys, did you like our trip? Where were we today? What was the forest like? Who did we see in the forest, what wild animals? Remember the name of the house of the wolf, fox and hare? What is the name of the bear's house? Who do you want to see next time, what animals?
In winter, the amount of food decreases significantly, which is why most animals begin to prepare for cold weather in the fall, and some begin to prepare food in the summer. Rodents are the first to collect supplies:
- mice,
- chipmunks,
- grandmas.
Already in the summer, they search throughout the forest for seeds and nuts, depositing them in burrows. This gives them the opportunity to sit in their house all winter and not go outside. During cold weather, rodents sleep almost all the time, interrupting their sleep only to eat.
Who isn't afraid of frost?
Foxes, hares and wolves practically do not prepare for frosts, as they spend the winter on their feet in search of food. The bunnies just change their clothes: they change their gray fur coat to a white one so that predators do not notice them on the snow carpet. It is very interesting to watch how animals prepare for winter, because everyone has their own secret.
Foxes and wolves
Foxes and wolves do not change the color of their coats, but their fur becomes thicker and fluffier: this makes it easier to survive severe frosts. Wolves gather in packs because it is much more convenient to survive in winter. Sly foxes look for any holes to rest and hide from the snowstorm.
Beavers and squirrels
Squirrels and beavers do not hibernate, but they are trained responsibly. Beavers live in large families, all together they build cozy houses near ponds, next to which they put their food - twigs from trees. They also feed on the roots of plants that grow in water.
I wonder how a squirrel prepares for winter? Red-haired forest dwellers do not hibernate, although they spend most of their time in their homes - hollows that they build high in the trees.
This rodent changes the color of its coat from red to grayish to camouflage itself from predators. What does a squirrel eat in winter? During the cold season, this rodent stocks up with the following belongings:
- acorns,
- mushrooms,
- nuts,
- seeds.
Let's talk about the bear
Bears set up their home in advance. They look for caves, ditches, where they carry leaves, branches, moss, and make a soft mattress on top from spruce branches. When snow falls, it masks the bear's hiding place and keeps it warm.
Bears do not store food, but in the fall they actively feed on nuts and fish in order to accumulate as much fat as possible for the winter. In fact, the predator does not sleep, but dozes, and if necessary, it can leave the den. It is in winter that a mother bear gives birth to small cubs.
This is how animals spend the winter. Some sleep all winter, others try to stay warm and find food for themselves. But you can learn a lot more interesting things about animals, birds and insects.
