Squirrels & Chipmunks Field Guide + FREE “My Field Notes” Journal
Come into the woods and meet the little neighbors scampering through the leaves and climbing overhead.
This whimsical watercolor field guide invites curious learners to compare squirrels and chipmunks, identify different species and discover their habitats and regions. Explore how they gather food for winter and meet the flying squirrel that glides between trees.
Children can enjoy an original woodland story, answer reading questions and turn their discoveries into SQUIRREL and CHIPMUNK acrostic poems. Math brings something different with comparing lengths, measuring woodland finds, following directions and recording tally marks. Optional fractions, scale drawing and research offer older learners opportunities to explore further.
