There is an EcoJournal for each of the four seasons. A Kid's Winter EcoJournal invites kids to write about nature on pages exquisitely illustrated by Margaret Brandt. The author has included short entries from her nature journals, which express her irrepressible and unflagging delight in the natural world. Kids love to read about Trickle Creek, where cardinals and bluejays are like Christmas ornaments in the evergreens and the groundhog hibernates in its burrow. The Winter EcoJournal is packed with nature activities for exploring winter. Kids can decorate a tree or a snowman for birds, make a collecting caddy and collect winter potpourri, make woodpecker pizza and bird biscuits, test for acid snow with cabbage water, and enjoy dozens of other fall activities that teach them to love the world of nature. Based on solid science. Grades 3-up.

Review
"'Teaching kids to care for the earth'...radiates from each new product, including the just published A Kid's Winter EcoJournal. In each two-page spread of the series, Albert shares personal experiences from her twenty years of keeping nature journals, invites the young reader to record his or her own journal entries on the page and then offers a nature activity that relates to Albert's journal entry." -- Keystone Conservationist, Jan/Feb 99

5.0 out of 5 stars
Wonderful tool to teach nature appreciation,
This review is from: A Kid's Winter EcoJournal: With Nature Activities for Exploring the Season (Paperback)
A Kid's Winter EcoJournal is another wonderful book to add to your child's library. There are four books in the series, one for each season.
Toni Albert delivered yet again with this book. It's set up by date starting December 1st and going until February 28th. The activities are divided up into weekly sections. This allows the child to spend some time on each activity but also doesn't make the book overwhelming. Each section has a journal area for your child to write in. My daughter likes to hurry when she's writing so I have to keep reminding her to write in her best handwriting. This is a book I plan to keep in her file of school work so I wanted her to write nicely. She loved coloring in the birds on the edges of each page. Again, the detailed art is wonderful even though it isn't in color. We have had so much fun that I'm already planning on buying the other three books in the series so we can continue our EcoJournal adventures.
