Backyard Explorer is filled with fun things to make, do and find, to discover the exciting world beyond kids' front door!

Kids will see their surroundings in a wonderful new way.

There's space to write, draw, collage, color and complete - turning the finished book into a wonderful scrapbook to treasure forever. With fun illustrations, a super bright neon cover and a handy, backpack sized format, it's a must-have item for any young explorer.

Review

"This journal-style activity book encourages children to take a closer look at their immediate surroundings, whether they live in the city, country, or in between...While readers with actual backyards or ready access to nature will get the most out of the book, the underlying messages about attentiveness to one's environment have broad applications." (Publishers Weekly 2017-04-01)

"Think your backyard is too boring for an adventure? This fill-in journal will change your mind. Designed to get kids looking with a sharper eye, it asks questions such as, Is your nearest park big and beautiful or dull and disappointing? Plus, it gives prompts to get them writing and drawing."
