Pack up sandcastle-building supplies, sunscreen, and this take-along
activity book! In the second book of the Backpack Explorer series from
the Editors of Storey Publishing, little beachcombers are encouraged to
discover all the wonders of saltwater oceans and freshwater lakes, from
identifying shorebirds to learning about the life found in tide pools to
listening to the waves and watching the tides.
Backpack Explorer: Beach Walk is packed with prompts and activities,
including 12 interactive field guides (for shells, jellyfish, and more),
sensory scavenger hunts, science experiments such as a Stick Sundial,
games, and simple projects including food chain match-ups and driftwood
fish. Equipped with a real magnifying glass, stickers, and a beach log
for recording shoreline sightings and adventures, this book is the
perfect takealong for any beach adventure.
