Ready to roll with your little ecologist? Head to the park to engage all the senses and discover new things—living things!

Shh. If we’re really quiet, what can we hear?

Did you know your nearby park is its own ecosystem? There, your baby can smell some flowers that use sunshine to grow, watch a bird reuse twigs for a nest, listen to ducklings peep, and touch the rough bark of a squirrel’s habitat. Babies and toddlers are naturally curious explorers—now help them discover that science is fun! In this bright, graphic board book, photos of wide-eyed little ones offset a lively running dialogue sprinkled with factual asides that define basic ecology terms.

This book makes me want to get outside and explore the great outdoors and encourages the many ways you can engage your baby's curiosity and their senses as they join you. There is a dual text, one to read to your young readers, but almost more importantly the parent text that defines scientific terms so a parent knows what they are teaching their children. The photographs are engaging and with a small amount of green space or a public park, it would be easy to implement. I love that this series empowers parents with ways to engage their children that benefit their brains and attachment to their grown-ups.
