Thank you to @Netgalley and Quatro Publishing/Quarry @quartokids for letting me preview this
amazing book Nature Play Workshop For Families by Monica Wiedel-Lubinski & Karen Madigan.
The timing of this book is perfect. If you are like me I am looking for ideas to do with the children
that can be done at a safe distance. This book is filled with wonderful ideas and activities that can
be done in your yard or at the park/nature trail. No special supplies are needed, you can use what
is around you.
What I loved about the book is the easy to follow layout.
Each activity has simple directions along with beautiful photos.
All the activities are divided by seasons which makes it easy to plan outings and activities.
The last two chapters are activities you can do anytime.
I set up an easy to do scavenger hunt that we did in our own backyard.
I only had to print out a page from the back of the book.
We grabbed our magnifying glass and headed out to the garden.
The activity took about 15 minutes. Depending on the age of your children you
could extend it longer.
If you don’t have children yourself, this book would make a great gift to give
to your grandchildren or other young children in your life.
