Description
Binoculars can be used for so much more than spying on siblings or birdwatching. This set provides a set of decent-quality kids' binoculars and an activity journal that provides ideas and activities for using them. The small purple-and-aqua binoculars feature 4x magnification, a built-in compass and an easy-to-use center focusing knob. And when you're done peeking around your yard and neighborhood, you can open up the 22-page Wildlife Activity Journal and use your binoculars to observe, write and draw about birds, wildlife and trees. It holds several guided activities you can do to take a closer look at your local wildlife, and includes spaces for drawing and lines for writing. Jess

  • Category Description for Nancy B's Science Club Kits

    Although designed especially to appeal to girls, we love these kits because they include tools for observation along with a guided journal that helps them to use the tool and apply it to their own investigations. The viewers are all a step up from just a toy, with decent-quality plastic optics (or glass, in the case of the telescope) and additional tools built in to aid in observations (like a compass on the binoculars and a ruler on the aquascope). Each viewer is also packaged with a full-color, 22-page activity journal, which helps kids use their tool for a variety of guided observations and activities.
