Hours of nature play ideas in one handy book. Wild Child, the second book in the nature craft series, is a beautiful, practical and easy to use nature activity guide for children aged 2-12 years.
Full of new and interesting nature-based activities, this book is suited to slightly older kids as well as young ones who have a helping hand.
With this book, you can help kids play independently with nature, and discover ways to bring nature indoors - great for those times when you're stuck inside.
This book is perfect for parents, grandparents, early years and primary teachers and home schoolers, as well as great for camping and school holiday play ideas.

Activities are open-ended, adaptable to suit your location, require minimal craft supplies and are inexpensive.
