Playful rephrasings for a 6-year-old — animals store food in burrows, tree hollows, or bury it

Here are 4 playful ways to say that for a 6-year-old:

• Shh! Squirrels and bunnies hide snacks in tree holes, cozy burrows, or tuck them under the dirt.
• Some animals stash treats in tree nooks, curl up in burrows, or bury goodies like tiny treasure hunters.
• Peek-a-boo food! Animals hide their snacks in burrows, hollow trees, or dig them into the ground.
• Like secret snack ninjas, animals tuck food into tree hollows, snug burrows, or bury it in the soil.

Simple steps to explain how they do it:

1. Find tasty food (nuts, seeds, or plants).
2. Pick a hiding place — a burrow, a hollow in a tree, or a spot in the ground.
3. Hide the food there so they can find it later when they are hungry.
