The interactive book for nature-loving children
This lovingly written and lively book shows how much fun it is for parents and children to discover and experience nature together. Creative ideas and experiments invite you to join in: from pressing wild flowers, playing on the beach and carving flutes to making your own herbal soap or rosehip jam, from Mississippi steamboats to underwater magnifying glasses, from Indian plasters to winter igloos. Richly illustrated instructions make it easy to follow along and offer parents a wealth of activity ideas that everyone will enjoy and that promote shared experiences of nature. In addition, there is information about animals and plants for nature lovers of all ages.
