Kids' Outdoor Adventure Book: 448 Great Things to Do in Nature Before You Grow Up

I love this book, I bought it last year to get some fun ideas to do with my 1 and 4 year old and they have some really unique and fun outdoor activities we have slowly been crossing off. If you like the outdoors and have kids I would recommend you buy this for some fun memories to be made.

This book is AWESOME!!!! Getting our kids and family outdoors and away from all the electronics gets a thumbs up from me.... This book also has some activities that has the use of the internet which doesn't forget about where we are with technology. Facts, fun activities, food projects, love love love this book!!!

Awesome book for great ideas to do outside. This kept my son busy trying to do all the activities

This is a fantastic book for bringing generations together, sharing good times, and a fantastic way to enjoy nature. I love this book!!! I live about a thousand miles from my grandchildren. I only see them about twice a year, which makes my time with them very precious. I gave them this book as a gift and we have had a wonderful time in phone conversations checking off all the activities we have already accomplished on previous summer vacations, and are also working on plans for all the new things we are going to try this summer.

Stacy & Ken did an excellent job compiling a list of outdoor adventure activities that can be enjoyed by kids & adults alike. I’ve been ‘checking-off’ the outdoor adventures I have done, & taking a trip down memory lane! I’m amazed at the activities I have not done in my 34 years, such as drying gourds. I love the layout of the book by season with additional games, activities, and recipes scattered throughout. The compilation of outdoor adventures is well-rounded & provides not only day-to-day activities you can do where you live, but ideas you can add to your list of vacation adventures, such as tap a maple tree. The Kids Outdoor Adventure Book has become an essential gift I give to my expecting friends & those already raising the next generation.

Living in the city, lots of these things are impossible or not local BUT I still love this book which is why I gave it 5 stars. Our children shouldn't lose touch with nature, especially now with all this technology. This book brings nature back to life w kids even if you have to plan a few weekend trips for a handful of things. It's quality time with your children. I recommend to buy.

This book is chock full of ideas and projects to get your children involved in nature and the out of doors. Digging worms to then go fishing with, skipping stones on water, building a bird cage, planting a garden then making your own meal from it, paddling a canoe, counting the legs on a starfish, hugging a tree and listening to birds are all a part of this multi-age use book. Each suggestion has a short how-to but not in huge detail. I like this aspect of the book because it encourages researching and digging deeper to find out more about the how, why, when and where of things. I highly recomend this book. Packaged well with two other books, it arrived in a timely manner.

Sometimes it's difficult to connect with your grandchildren who are all different ages and are used to sitting in front of a video screen or having some kind of earphone in! This book is truly the answer. Divided by season, there are 448 ideas that will allow children of all ages to be entertained and/or challenged while getting some fresh air and exercise. Set up with little check boxes, the kids can even keep track of how many of the activities they accomplish. In addition to the 448 ideas, there are also recipes, projects, and games sprinkled throughout the book. No special equipment or skills required for most of these activities. Just grab the grandchildren, go outside, and start doing things together to build great memories!

So many ideas and it even has a website to go to which allows for more nature exploration!

My son loves it
