Description
Get ready to uncover the hidden stories animals leave behind! Start with a close-up look at real animal tracks and traces, like footprints, feathers, scat, and chewed leaves-and learn how to read the clues they leave in nature. Then head outside to become a nature detective, searching for signs of wildlife in the forest and field. It's a fun, hands-on adventure perfect for curious kids who love exploring, observing, and getting a little muddy while learning something new.
