Make a Book from your Nature Outing

 Go to a forest or the park and take pictures of insects, flowers, trees, the sun, water, etc.

 Make a spiral bound notebook from Walgreens for under $10 here.

 Add captions to your pictures at the level for your child, I used captions like "purple flower", "tree bark", "ants".  I used all lowercase letters.

 The photobook has three shipping options ranging from $1.99 to $10.99.

Make sure you have a title for your cover page. I used, "What Do You See?" The title must be under 27 characters.

You can make the book longer or shorter and use it on several trips. The price is cheaper than museum trips for a day and you have a book you can keep. This is a real life application way of teaching that can develop language and an interest in spelling and writing.  Children getting to see themselves in a book is always exciting.
