The suggested games to play with these cards are Silly Sloth (played like Old Maid), Animal Memory, and Go Fish for Baby Animals. My two girls (ages 4 and 6) enjoyed playing several games of Animal Memory, as well as Go Fish for Baby Animals.
Besides playing the games, my girls loved just looking through the cards and having me read about each of the animals from the book. We recently started using Galloping the Globe and the first part of that curriculum teaches about maps and the continents, so as we were learning the continents, we made a large earth out of yarn on the family room floor. We then placed the continents on the earth (I printed out blank continent outlines for this) and then placed the baby animal cards on the appropriate continents.
