Spring Wonders Pack: 12 Nature Field Guides

Frogs singing in the pond, worms on the path after rain, birds flying home. Spring is the season when everything wakes up, and little kids want to know why.

Spring Wonders is a whole season of nature study for curious kids ages 3-7: 12 printable field guides, one for each week, 128 pages in total. No prep, no special supplies. Print a guide (or open it on a tablet) and you're ready for ten minutes of wonder.

Inside every guide:

• A short read for grown-ups, so you can answer every "why?"
• Five read-aloud whoa facts
• Questions for ages 3-4 and 5-7
• A hands-on activity with a simple supply list
• A tick-it-off walk for a puddle, a nest or a patch of wildflowers
• A colouring page drawn for that wonder
• Counting and tracing practice
• A field notes page to draw or dictate what they noticed
• Two picture books to look for at the library
• Sources, so you can read more

Bonus pages: a whole-season scavenger hunt, a weather log, a walk journal and an Official Spring Naturalist certificate.

The 12 guides: Frogs & tadpoles, Rain & puddles, Worms, Seeds that sprouts, Buds & new leaves, Nests & eggs, Bees & flowers, Caterpillars & butterflies, Rainbows, Bird migration, Snails & slugs, Wildflowers

A few of the facts kids love:

• Frogs drink with their skin.
• Wood frogs' spring song sounds like a quacking duck.
• Some bees are smaller than a grain of rice.

Every fact is checked against government science sources like NOAA, NASA, the USDA Forest Service and the National Park Service, and listed on the last page of each guide.

You'll get: one complete PDF (all 12 guides) plus a zip with each guide as its own PDF. Instant download. Printable on US Letter, at home or at the library.
