Four-year-olds ask why the sky changes and where food comes from, and this second-level environmental studies book answers with pages they can work on.
Coverage widens from the first book to take in plants and their parts, animal homes, means of transport, community helpers, water, and keeping surroundings clean. Tasks ask for labelling, matching, simple sorting and short picture-based answers, which means a child does something with each fact rather than only looking at it. The 64 pages follow a fixed rhythm of one topic per spread, making the book easy to align with a nursery timetable.
The takeaway:
• Topics including plant parts, animal homes, transport and community helpers
• Label, match and sort tasks that turn each fact into an activity
• One topic per spread, which makes planning a weekly lesson straightforward
• A step up in vocabulary from the age three environmental studies title
Written for four-year-olds with parents or teachers alongside, published by Golden Minds Publishing House and sold at Boipoka.
