Perfect for your young explorers and your elementary artists. Make a craft inspired by nature--and learn something, too! What can you create with some backyard objects and tissue paper? Your very own flower crown! Use easy-to-follow directions to make fifteen crafts (and two recipes!) with each one focused on nature.

Explore the natural world in a new and creative way. Crafters practice comprehension skills as they use text and diagrams to follow the steps for each project. The activities push students to learn and apply domain-specific vocabulary, practice new techniques, and build on concepts that may already be familiar. Other tools, including an index and additional resources, encourage readers to locate information and explore further independently.

Using household odds and ends and natural materials from any walk outdoors, the reader can make a variety of nature crafts.
