Nature's not scary: 6 nature walks to take with kids under 7 - Paperback

by Rachel Abel (Author)

A practical, activity book for educators and parents who are nurturing future eco-custodians. For the anxious, adventurous and anyone in between. In this book, you'll find step-by-step guides for 6 nature walks to take with kids under 7 each with a different theme. Including what to take with you, suggested questions to spark conversations and downloadable activity sheets. There are also nature journal pages for you to draw, scribble and stick in! Choose where to take the walks. Around the corner on your block, to the local park or on a day trip further away. If you are a parent of anxious kids (or an anxious parent) who finds nature a bit scary, this book will support you in taking those first adventures together. And if your kids are already adventurous, it will give you some fresh ideas to extend the learning that's possible. This book is also perfect if you are an educator looking for structured nature learning resources to help plan activities. I would love for you to send me pictures of this book covered in dirt and mud, scribbled in and with curled-up edges. This book is designed as a field guide so please take it out into the field, onto the pavement or through the forest. Have an adventure, make a memory.
