N2 - "Look I'm an Ecologist helps children discover they already have the tools they need to be an awesome ecologist: an inquisitive mind, unlimited imagination, and super senses! Whether they are doing nature crafts indoors; growing plants on a windowsill, on a balcony, or in a garden; or collecting things at a park or beach, the exciting, hands-on projects show kids just how much fun it is being green, and encourage preschoolers to use their senses as they explore the natural world. The green activities are a gentle introduction to environmental topics such as climate change, conservation, and recycling--ideal for curious kids who want to make a difference. Budding ecologists will construct a bird feeder, make leaf prints, create a paper pond, weave a spider's web, build a seascape, grow plants, and record their findings on journey sticks. With clear pictures and easy-to-follow instructions, the practical activities support preschool and Kindergarten curriculum's. Look I'm an Ecologist gives young readers the opportunity to do what they do best: imagine, create, learn, problem solve, and play their way to a greener planet." -- Amazon ER -
