With an easy to read format and lots of kid friendly suggestions this book is a great resource for the earth conscious family. The simple ideas and projects are designed to teach ecology and environmental awareness while involving the whole family. The best feature, in my opinion, is the assumption that whole families, parents and children, will read this book and try these activities together. So often, activities are suggested that involve an in-equal level of involvement for all family members. Either the children explore and parents observe, or parents act while children look on. This book assumes real cooperation and collaboration, and the doing it in nature makes for the perfect family outing. Playing together and exploring the natural world, what could be better?
