Here's a fun activity that will have your child researching, collecting, and charting plant specimens from the neighborhood.

Jazz up your patio or backyard with hip and quirky planters made from simple Mason jars.

In this plant habitats activity, children play the role of an ecologist and take surveys of different areas to discover the best habitat for dandelions.

Combine your child's natural curiosity with his developing classification and writing skills by helping him create a backyard field guide.
