If your kids are anything like we were, they love the “Where’s Waldo?” or “For Eagle Eyes Only” type of puzzle books. These books each offer just over a dozen different colorful scenes with different things for children to find. The scenes each cover a two-page spread and follow the theme of the book. The objects to find are shown around the edges of the page. For example, in the 1001 Things to Spot Long Ago, one of the scenes is of the Pharaoh’s court. Kids are asked to find 10 beaded collars, 9 white fans, 2 pairs of red sandals, 3 stools, 10 wine jars, 4 monkeys, 1 harp, 3 patterned rugs, 10 bracelets, and 2 chests. In total, each book contains 1001 things for kids to find. - Melissa

We have been enjoying this book with our 4 year old son. He is a insect "connoisseur" . He's been chasing/collecting bug sightings since he was 2. It's great for both his observational skills as well as a beginning science book. Also, you can read just one page at a time and really delve into the illustrations. It is a favorite in our house.
