Nature Detective

by Sarah Parvis

Any walk outdoors—from a backyard to a local park to true wilderness— turns into an instant adventure for a nature detective! This kit encourages curious children to inspect leaves, bark, seeds, and mud for hints about the world around them and provides fun facts about acorns, pine cones, mushrooms, animal tracks, and other plant and animal leave-behinds.

A 64-page guide to common flora, a sturdy, high-powered magnifying glass, a laminated nature scavenger hunt, and an entertaining activity poster complete the kit.
