Science in the Wild is a perfect non-fiction for parents, teachers and inquisitive little minds. As a teacher and parent I absolutely loved the simple instructions, clean colourful layout and inspiring investigations. I cannot wait to try some of the wonderful ideas in the classroom. At home we have already built bird feeders, hunted for animal footprints and made food for bugs and butterflies. There were squeals of delight from the children when we found footprints in the garden.
Equipment needs are minimal or very inexpensive. (a must on a classroom budget) The science behind each experiment is explained brilliantly for young scientists. For anyone with a love of the outdoors, who likes getting their hands dirty, this book is a goldmine of ideas, a must buy!
