The Complete Real Kids, Real Science book series

Develop your child's imagination, creativity, and appreciation for the great outdoors!


All children become fascinated by the world around them. We, as adults, need to make use of those rare opportunities we have to help them develop their curiosity and interests. Through the Real Kids, Real Science book series, parents can help their children develop an understanding of our natural world and also nurture experiences that will last their children a lifetime. At the same time you and your child will nurture experiences that will last a lifetime.

The hardcover books in this series are filled with hundreds of vivid pictures, dozens of fun activities, and countless learning experiences to help your child learn about the world he or she lives in. By following the clear instructions, your child can experience hands-on activities and read real scientific facts about some of their favorite critters. And, while doing so, your child can refer to the book's pictures as further guidance and as visual stepping-stones on hikes, while camping, or even while exploring the backyard.

There are six books in the Real Kids, Real Science series: Entomology; Marine Biology; Invertebrate Zoology; Woods, Ponds, & Fields; Ornithology; and Arthropods.

Entomology:
This book - covering the study of insects - describes different types of insects, their lifecycles, and how to collect them. Activities include simple tasks such as using a butterfly net and raising caterpillars to the more advanced activities of making a collection of insects and identifying them by scientific names. Your child will come away with an understanding of some of the smallest, most prevalent, and most important creatures on the planet.

Marine Biology:
Whether you live near a coast or not, your child will learn about some of this world's most interesting and odd-looking creatures. Everything from seashells to seaweed, tides to plankton, and seagulls to whales is covered in this educational book. This book will take your child's imagination on a field trip along the beaches and sea shores and then into our blue oceans.

Invertebrate Zoology:
Starfish, sponges, snails, spiders and squid... this book covers creatures without a backbone. Your child will learn about one of the largest groups of creatures on the planet. Did you know that invertebrates make up 95% of this world's animals? And they live everywhere!

Woods, Ponds, & Fields:
Your child will learn about bird watching, making leaf prints, pressing plants, and how crickets sing with their legs. Children will learn about the frog in their backyard, the bird outside their window, and the turtle they saw on last weekend's camping trip. This is a great book for the curious child!

Ornithology:
What's the difference between a zipped feather and an unzipped feather? This book will tell your child.

After sharing the experience of this book with your child, you will see your child begin to identify birds they see in their backyard and grow in understanding of our feathered friends.
