5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent motivator for bird watching and nature appreciation,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Beginning Birdwatcher's Book: With 48 Stickers (Dover Children's Activity Books) (Paperback)
I bought "Beginning Birdwatcher's Book with 48 Stickers" for my 5-year-old great-niece, but after going through it, I decided to present it to the Science Olympiad scholar, my 11-year-old great-niece, the big sister. In fact, she told me just yesterday that she didn't think she would like bird study but now finds it "really interesting." This is a milestone from a child whose own friends tell her she never shows wild emotion. (They just don't see her at home!)
You can see the concept made concrete on the cover (if you can see that clearly). Each of the 48 birds commonly found in backyards has a separate half-page (lengthwise) column that provides this information: a blank space for the sticker once the birder sights (sees?) the bird, its size, description of eggs, food, range, and a series of four lines on which the birder can record precise information about the sighting. Simple, easy, effective, and most significantly--memorable! Oh, yes, I will order two more--one for the five-year-old and one for the great-aunt. After all, she, too, is a beginning birder! I think I'll throw in another for their brother, an already nature-lover. We mustn't have a family feud over bird watching!

This review is from: Beginning Birdwatcher's Book: With 48 Stickers (Dover Children's Activity Books) (Paperback)
My 4 year old niece and her 8 year old sister were excited to start identifing birds in their neighborhood, and putting the stickers of those birds in the book. They were disapointed however, that there were no pigeon stickers, since pigeons are plentiful were they live.
