Backpack Explorer: On the Nature Trail

Jump-start curiosity with this take-along field guide for children ages 4 and up. From worms, birds, and spiders to trees, flowers, and clouds, young explorers learn what to look and listen for wherever they are.

Whether in a nature preserve, an urban park, or a suburban backyard, seek-and-find lists, on-the-trail art projects, and discovery games get kids engaged in hands-on learning about nature. A real pull-out magnifying glass helps them get a close-up glimpse of leaf veins, seed pods, and tiny insects.
