Backpack Explorer: On the Nature Trail

Jump-start curiosity with this take-along field guide packed with interactive look-and-find challenges, games, and on-the-trail crafts, this outdoor activity book—complete with a real magnifying glass, stickers, and a pull-out, make-your-own trail map

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, and a real pull-out magnifying glass helps them get a close-up glimpse of leaf veins, seed pods, and tiny insects. Filled with activities, checklists, and stickers, this interactive nature guide belongs in every kid’s backpack.

Now nature-curious kids can play and learn with the companion Backpack Explorer online game!
