This is a fun activity book for kids who are interested in birds. The book is designed as a sort of journal, for children to keep track of observations with details like date of sighting, location of sighting, and other notes. Entries for common birds include a spot for a sticker (there are 48 included) and observation tips and information like nesting facts and the bird's range.
This is a 32-page beginning birder book for kids five and up, depending on reading aptitude and interest in birds! The included stickers are a fun way to check off common birds that have been sighted; note that not all birds range across the entire United States, so without travel it would be hard to see all of the birds -- but that's a great learning opportunity! Get geography involved in your youngster's study, along with migration, which in turn leads to discussion of weather, seasons, and more. Learning about birds can lead to so much more understanding of science and the natural world, beyond identification and dedicated study of birds. Get them started with this great activity journal book!
