From backyard to wilderness, activities for different settings, climates, and weather; Features both practical and creative “missions” to engage learning and playing; Aimed at outdoor adventurers ages six and up, the Adventure Handbook features more than 20 ways to creatively explore the outdoors. Entertaining year-round activities help kids learn how to plan their own adventures, take care of themselves in the wild, and discover new skills—from map-making and knot-tying to identifying animal tracks and nighttime constellations. A range of adventures are organized for Exploration (such as collecting natural treasures), Creation (making and cooking with a campfire), Knowledge (what to pack), and Play (hide-and-seek geocaching). Clear instructions, including full-color photos and informative illustrations, guide readers through each activity, step-by-step, while tips throughout encourage parents to get involved with their kids outdoors.
