Meet the Sleepy Superstar of Costa Rica!
Did you know sloths are one of the slowest animals in the world? In Costa Rica, they love hanging out in the rainforest, munching on leaves, and taking lots of naps. Locals call them perezoso, which means "lazy," but we think they’re just extra chill!
Now your child can create their very own sleepy sloth friend with this easy and fun craft. It’s a great way to get hands-on while learning about wildlife and nature in Costa Rica.
