Description

Pack up sandcastle-building supplies, sunscreen, and this take-along activity book that turns a day at the beach into a learning adventure, with search & find challenges, sand games, and at-the-beach science and crafts. In the second book of the Backpack Explorer series from the Editors of Storey Publishing, little beachcombers are encouraged to discover all the wonders of saltwater oceans and freshwater lakes, from identifying shorebirds to learning about the life found in tide pools to listening to the waves and watching the tides. Backpack Explorer: Beach Walk is packed with prompts and activities, including 12 interactive field guides (for shells, jellyfish, and more), sensory scavenger hunts, science experiments such as a Stick Sundial, games, and simple projects including food chain match-ups and driftwood fish. Equipped with a real magnifying glass, stickers, and a beach log for recording shoreline sightings and adventures, this book is the perfect takealong for any beach adventure. Now nature-curious kids can play and learn with the companion Backpack Explorer online game! Read more

  • Keep hidden until you go to the beach.
My kids love this book and still do, they constantly look over and reminisce over our trip and what we saw and asked if we can go see other things that are in the book. It is just fun and full of learning, I wish I would have hid it before the trip because my kids did absolutely every activity they could before we got to the beach, and lost the magnifying glasses which is fine strangely enough I actually have extra. But it would have made a really good surprise. And I can't take away stars for that. ... show more

  • Perfect for PNW
We LOVE this book! It was a great way to engage our toddler before, during and after our visit to Canon Beach. Nearly everything was immediately applicable, and it's helped to solidify the learning experiences he had there, and commit it to memory. I wish it was plastic free, but that's tough in an environment with water. Definitely recommend, and will seek out similar books for our other outdoor adventures. ... show more

  • The best children’s adventure books, hands down.
This is our 3rd of these books. We have the nature trail & bug editions as well. They’re simply the best! We have a 3.5 year old who loves the outdoors, and we’re getting ready to have a beach vacation next month. Not only are they informational with things like shell, seaweed & marine life identification (as well as plants, birds etc), but they inspire creativity (which admittedly I lack sometimes). For example it discusses things you can do in the sand - why have I never thought of hopscotch at the beach?! It recommends adding cute things like rocks and shells to your sand castles, making shell art & sundials, getting your senses involved like smelling & touching, life cycles of some animals you can find on the beach like crabs… I can go on and on. Truly, this book and every one in the series is worth your money. You’re guaranteed to learn a thing or two, as well. ... show more

  • Wonderful, interactive beach book
We live by the beach. My granddaughter who is 7 came to visit. I thought this would be the perfect book to teach her about all the wonderful creatures on the beach and in the ocean and something we could do together. It had select stickers too when we finished a section. This book was perfect. She took it home with her. ... show more

  • Great book for beach adventure!
This is a wonderful book. My four year old granddaughter loved it. Gave it to her one week before our beach trip. Was ready to do all the activities in it the minute we arrived. A wonderful way to share this happy time together. Filled full of great information and fun projects to do. Highly recommend! ... show more

  • Great book for beach vacation
We took this to the outer banks and my 10 and 5 yr olds loved filling it out and searching for the items. Engaging and very well done.

  • Great activity ideas
My children are 3 &5. This book is a great resource when we are camping at the beach and doing aquariums. We live in Northern California and most of this is very relevant to our area. If you lived or planned a beach stay (a couple of days on the beach, not a single day visit) this would be great for your small children. Probably good up to 8-10years depending on how involved of a parent you are and able to adjust the curriculum to their level. ... show more

  • Great for little beach explorers!
I boughtvthis for my 4 year old grandson to take on his beach vacation. He enjoyed the pictures and the activities that were suggested in each chapter. Although I wasn't with him on the vacation he did talk about what he saw on the beach each day. Hopefully he'll use again sometime.
