Julian recommends Forest Club: a Year of Activities, Crafts and Exploring Nature by Kris Hirschmann

This beautifully illustrated book is full of easy art and science activities to encourage children to engage with nature. I really love the bits of science sprinkled throughout the book in an easy to digest way. I'd definitely recommend this book to parents who are hoping to educate their children while spending time outdoors. It's organized by season and has many simple, affordable and fun activities that can be completed on short hikes and visits to the park.
Publisher description:
Suggests outdoor activities throughout the year that explore nature, from building a tarp shelter and learning about edible plants to planting seeds and examining how ponds change each season.
