About the Author:

Laura Erickson's popular radio program, For the Birds, airs on several public radio stations. Laura has received numerous awards for ornithological research, conservation, and writing.

Touching Birds-Most people are inclined to use just their index finger to pet a bird, but this feels like poking to the bird. Tell the children to extend index and middle fingers together. People--including two-year-olds-automatically touch more gently with the two-finger method.

Creating Scientists-Let kids guess how things work, then show them whether they're right. Even better, help them figure out how to test their guess rather than simply telling them.
