A Field Guide to Winter

A Field Guide to Winter is a pocket-sized introduction to winter, inspired by the Forest School movement. Building on children's natural curiosity about the world around them, this book aims to establish a connection with nature at an early age that will go on to last a lifetime!

Track paw prints through the snow, make your own woodland wind chimes, identify evergreen trees and write a bedtime story for a sleepy bear. Discover how snowflakes form and why some animals hibernate in winter.

This book features lyrical poems, hands-on crafts and activities, scientific facts and identifier pages to help children spot different animals and plants. Whether a child's access to nature is in the form of an urban park, a private garden, a field or a forest, there is so much to discover and experience.
