Your backyard or a local park is a wonderland of winged creatures. Kirkland provides fun facts and lesson plans in this enjoyable and focused children’s field guide to birds. It’s great for teachers or a day out with the kids.
Customer Review: Take a Backyard Bird Walk
My whole family has spent many afternoons enjoying this book. My eight year old daughter takes it with her on bike rides, trips to the park, and walks around the neighborhood. This book is very informative and easy to use. My kids love being able to write observations and draw pictures in the book. This book is great fun for kids and adults. It can be used in or out of a classroom, for birthday parties or a scouting activity. I highly recommend this book for anyone who enjoys birds or being outside!! Buy from here…
