Author Description

Wherever you live or visit, you can find nature as long as you look for it. You can find insects crawling in a small patch of grass in the city. Your kids can discover the creatures living in the backyard of your suburban home. You can explore the field or forest within your area's conservation land. Even if you don't know much about nature, you can engage your children, whether they are two or twelve, in their surroundings by stimulating their observation skills and imaginations. Games on the Go: Nature Games and Activities for You and Your Kids, is filled with nature activities you can do while walking outdoors. A walk to school or around your neighborhood becomes an interactive learning adventure instead of a mechanical journey to get to "there." This book is a useful tool for parents, environmental educators, camp counselors, teachers, scout leaders, and anyone who goes outside with children ages 2-to-12. Within the descriptions of the different nature activities, you'll find ways to adapt the actions for one child or a group, as well as ways you can tweak the games for different age groups as well as multiple-age groups.
