Nice Book for Kids Interested in Nature
Published by MK , 1 year ago
This book has a lot of information in it with nice pictures to help you identify different plants and creatures. My kids love the fun facts and the activities to go along with the different sections.
My Daughter Loves this Book!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
We purchased this book, along with the follow-on "More Fun with Nature" at the Cabela's in Boise, Idaho. My daughter always has one of these books nearby - she's sitting on the couch reading this one right now. A good deal of information is presented in a neat, friendly way. We used this book to identify a luna moth and a douglas squirrel within days of arriving in Washington. Although not as thorough as a field guide, the format makes it very accessible (and therefore more likely to be read) to children. I highly recommend both books and look forward to purchasing more in the series.
Great for Homeschoolers

This book has the perfect amount of information for elementary age children; my kids won't put it down. It is the best science resource book that I've found so far- a must have for homeschoolers or kids that are constantly discovering new creatures in the yard. The craft ideas are fun too!
Great Book

I love this book. I found it when I was at the nature art museum in Jackson Hole. I cannot wait to use this when I become a teacher. I am already using it in my classes for lesson plans. I will definitely use this when I have my own children too.

If you ever go camping, this book is a must!! Fun with Nature describes everything from trees to rabbits to snakes to butterflies to animal droppings - called 'scat'! I didn't know that - did you?? With colorful illustrations and fact-filled pages, you can look up and indentify all sorts of things found in nature. Each page describes an animal, plant or insect in easy-to-read detail and helps you to indentify and learn about what you might encounter. Fun facts dots the pages, too. The entries are divided into sections to make referencing easy and at the end of each section is a fun enrichment activity to do. Blank pages also create a place to record your findings on your outings. My family took this book on our camping trips and half of our fun was spent identifying the squirrels, butterflies, trees and insects that we came across. Even us adults were hooked - making this a great activity for all ages to get involved with. As an elementary school teacher, I can use this with my class, too! I can't recommend this book enough! You'll love it!
