Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal
Grade 3-6–An attractive, colorful compilation of art projects. Four major sections (Digging Deep, Going Green, It's All Elemental, and Fertile Ground) each contain more than a dozen activities and/or experiments. Good-quality illustrations and photos bring these ideas to life. An introduction discusses how to start a nature collection; respecting the environment; trying new tools, techniques, and materials; staying safe; and having fun. Most of the projects can be completed in 5 to 12 steps with materials either purchased at an art-supply or novelty store, or found outside. Topics include marbling, frozen patterned paper, flower prints, bubble painting, rock research, and ancient art. Children will polish their creative skills with a wide variety of artistic experiences, such as a secret garden, silly sprouts, terrific topiaries, beautiful batik, super spider's web, weathervanes, great flowing fountain, sparkling ice chandeliers, and more.–Augusta R.

Review
Good-quality illustrations and photos bring these ideas to life…Children will polish their creative skills with a wide variety of artistic experiences … (School Library Journal )

This book would be a life-caver for mothers whose kids have run out of ideas on what to do until school starts or for teachers who would like to extend the summer season with some outdoor art projects come September. (Winnipeg Free Press )

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource, January 13, 2009
By Crease in the Page (Hills of Northern California) - See all my reviews
  
This book contains art projects that relate to geology, weather, botany/gardening, conservation/recycling. There are also a few projects related to wildlife and one ocean/lake project. Many different media are used, both store-bought (various paints and dyes, wax, fabric, bristol board) and found (rocks, sticks, flowers, sand). My son likes this book; it is written at about a third-grade reading level. It would also be a valuable resource for classroom teachers.
