Bringing the Outside In is an exciting addition to the emerging literature on connecting children with nature. This beautifully-illustrated book offers hands-on activities such as creating bamboo ladybug feeders and constructing worm hotels to sorting seeds and growing fairy gardens. Children will discover the wonder of nature and the way it works. As children explore, create, and reflect, they'll discover the scientist and artist within. For parents, teachers, and other adults working with young children, Bringing the Outside In will become a treasured resource for fostering creativity and a deep appreciation of nature.
