What do earthworms, ants, bees, and butterflies have to do with the peach you ate for lunch today?
Our Wonderful World Fall invites children to explore the wonders of God's creation by discovering the answers for themselves.
Seven nature explorations for fall engage a child's curiosity with story and hands-on investigation while introducing children to our backyard neighbors:
- Earthworms.
- Ants.
- Spiders.
- Honeybees.
- Butterflies and moths.
- And others.
In each chapter, children learn about the habits of insects and their kin through story before pulling out notebooks and magnifying glasses to make their own discoveries. These friendly introductions provide a glimpse into the surprises they will find all around them, such as the structured life of an ant colony or the countless variations of a spider's web.
Hands-on projects range from counting earthworms to observing a beehive to starting a butterfly garden. Rounding out each chapter are notebooking and literary selections, plus additional reading for greater understanding.
Along the way, children will encounter the wonders of nature close at hand while building observation and research skills-skills that will last them a lifetime no matter what their future may hold. More importantly, they will grow into their heritage as children of God.
"So set yourself to work; enjoy your book; but, better, enjoy the wonders of your own back yard."
