Earthwise: Environmental Crafts and Activities with Young
Earthwise: Environmental Crafts and Activities with Young Children
by Carol Petrash
Earthwise is full of practical ideas for nature crafts and seasonal activities to encourage young children to be aware of their environment. The activities are carefully written and beautifully illustrated, and will encourage children to develop a respect for nature, the earth and all living creatures. Children will learn about their dependence on the earth's produce (by taking stalks of wheat and turning them into bread-flour); how to create and not just consume (by making their own gifts); how to make butter and grow food (even in the city); and how to make outdoor playhouses from natural materials.
The book also contains seasonal suggestions for making a more Earth-friendly home and classroom, and a comprehensive list of resources and suppliers. Age 3-9 years.
'How do parents and childminders keep their sanity over the long school holidays? Answer: invest in a book like this. It is jam-packed with ideas for simple activities using natural materials found everywhere. This is well worth the £8.99 price. It is an investment for life.'
-- Jackie Harris, Worcester Evening News, 21 August 2004
'A wonderful and very original craft book. These seasonal activities are brilliantly thought out and easy to follow. Wonderful.'
-- Hilary Woolf, Education Otherwise, October 2004
