I thought I would share a new children’s book with you which is the perfect book to use when #Homeschooling and teaching children about Nature. Nature Explained A family guide to 20 nature cycles by Helen Brown & Claire Scully. I received a copy of the book in exchange for this review.
My family loves being out in Nature and exploring Flowers, Trees and unique Rocks. Even though Nature Explained A family guide to 20 nature cycles is for children from 5 to 7 my family learned new facts about nature we can share with your friends and family.
I like how the Author broke the book down into 6 sections including Trees, Leaves, Flowers my favorite section and Charlie also enjoyed reading this section because there was things we can use in our Garden, Seeds, Mushrooms David’s favorite section and Seasons one of Charlie’s favorite sections.
The book was easy enough for Charlie to read on his own and for David to read with a little bit of help from us. All of us enjoyed the illustrations. If I had been #Homeschooling Charlie still there was a lot we could have used in our Art Class and also Spelling because Charlie didn’t know some of the words.
Science teachers should have Nature Explained A family guide to 20 nature cycles in there classroom and this book should be in School Libraries. My family learned a lot through the book and now we are better equipped to know what is happening in Nature and why.
