We have an "activity jar" for our kids. It's just a clean spaghetti sauce jar that we have filled with 1"x2" pieces of bright cardstock folded in half. Each piece has a different activity written on it. When our days aren't full of the "pre-scheduled" activities/errands that make up life, and the kids are just pining for a fun activity, we pull out an activity and give it a go! We've designed and painted our own T-shirts, made edible playdough (chocolate!), painted rocks, made wooden spoon puppe...more
This is such a fun book! I love most of the books from this series. It really is age appropriate. I've been using this book for preschool with my not-quite two year old son, and it's been a blast. We've made gooblec, and that's been a big hit. The book has supplemental reading suggestions, edible projects, and crafts. It's so fun to homeschool toddlers!

Whoa!
This book is amazing! For the 3rd activity you talk about community. then take a 5 ft. string, go outside, and make a big circle with the bug in the middle, then discuss that bug's community: twig, beattle, flower, etc. That's just a taste!

This book has tons of fun activities to do with the kids that teach them about nature how things work. Good for younger kids, and probably some older kids too.
Not something to read straight through - much better to use as a reference when the kids are stir-crazy and you need something to keep them entertained.
