Description

The Backpack Explorer series has a new addition that encourages children aged four and above to explore outside and learn about rocks. This take-along activity book, called Backpack Explorer: Rock Hunt, contains 12 interactive field guide pages that introduce rock classifications based on their color, shape, size, and texture. It also features sensory scavenger hunts, hands-on outdoor creative activities, rock experiments, and discovery zone pages that provide facts about geology, landforms, igneous and metamorphic rocks, gems, fossils, and more. This book comes equipped with a real magnifying glass, stickers, and a log for recording rock finds, making it the perfect companion for young geologists exploring their backyard, a city park, or a nature preserve. In addition to the book, nature-curious children can also enjoy the Backpack Explorer online game.
