Get children outside with these fun activities which form the perfect introduction to rivers and ponds Ponds and rivers are wonderful places to sit and watch wildlife, and this book is a simple introduction to these freshwater habitats for inquisitive young children. It takes a look at what you might expect to find in these environments, an array of fascinating facts, the life cycle of a frog, and a guide to some common water birds. There is also a “what to spot?” gallery with easy and hard plants and animals to find and tick off. When children have had enough of exploring outside, there are more than 30 stickers to use on the fold-out play scene at the back of the book.
