5.0 out of 5 stars Carefully read book description on Amazon...., February 6, 2006

Milivica "Milivica" (Madison, WI United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Not what I wanted....but I'm giving a 5 because it's my fault I didn't read the book description thoroughly. Had I, I'd have realized it is not they type of book that gives nature activities TO DO outdoors with my kids....but is (as stated) a book with puzzles, mazes, almost academic stuff you do SITTING at a table basically.

So, again, my fault for not reading description, it is EXACTLY as described. If I wanted to brush up academically with my kids, or with art even (the oregami) then it would have been a great book for us. A child that enjoys puzzles, mazes, 'quiet' work would love this book. I'm sure my 8 year old would love some of it, like the mazes.

I would think it'd be a very good for home schooling type activities, not good for 'HANDS ON' physically active type learning. I have a friend that home schools and plan to give it to her. I think she and her kids will really enjoy it.
