Why settle for less? Utilize educational content tailor-made for your part of the country, and introduce children to nature in California.
National workbooks are great—but regional content is even better! Focus on the habitats, plants, and animals specifically found in California.
Written by George Oxford Miller, a botanist from the Southwest, the Backyard Science & Discovery Workbook: California does what other workbooks can’t: It gets specific about climate, geography, state symbols, weather, and especially birds, fungi, insects, minerals, trees, wildflowers, and so much more. With over 20 simple, fun introductions to scientific subjects—like astronomy and geology—it gets children excited about nature in their own backyard and teaches them to love and protect the great outdoors. More than a dozen activities help kids to make hypotheses, experiment, and observe. The 19 hands-on science projects—such as raising native caterpillars, making mushroom spore prints, and attracting moths with an ultraviolet light—put students in control of their own learning!
You never know what your children will uncover in their outdoor classroom. Every day is a little treasure hunt. If they keep good records and share what they find, their observations can even help scientists learn more about nature in California. So get the Backyard Science & Discovery Workbook: California, and get started on a lifetime of discovery.
