The Kids' Guide to Nature Adventures: 80 Great Activities for Exploring the Outdoors by Joe Rhatigan, suggests a variety of ways to commune with nature. Pointers help youngsters choose the best campsite, cite animal trails and discover the differences between butterflies and moths. Hands-on activities include making a homemade backpack, doing animal calls with a blade of grass and a rubber band and recording night sounds. Photographs capture plants and animals in the wild and also help to illustrate the activities.
