DINOSAUR TRAIN --- BUDDY AND THE NATURE TRACKERS FLAP BOOK REVIEW & GIVEAWAY

I wrote this post on behalf of PBS and their PR Company. I received Buddy and The Nature Trackers Flap Book in exchange for an honest review. This is not a sponsored review and all views and opinions are of my own and were not influenced in anyway.

My kids enjoy flap books and even more so Dinosaur Train Flap Books! Buddy & The Nature Trackers Flap Book from Reader's Digest Children's Books has more than More than 45 flaps to lift and a learning activity on each spread combine to make this book both entertaining and educational!  The Nature Trackers are always on the lookout for interesting things to discover all around them. Kids will enjoy the adventures of Buddy, Tiny, Shiny and Don as they check out a cave filled with colorful gems, watch baby dinosaurs hatch from eggs, look for the adjectives and more. The activities throughout reinforce early learning concepts like colors, action words, counting, matching, and opposites.   What a great learning tool for kids!

 

 

Spring is springing and what better way to celebrate World Habitat Awareness Month (April) and Earth Day (April 22) then to set out exploring the nature around you with Dinosaur Train’s Buddy and the Nature Trackers!

 

 

Consider joining the Dinosaur Train Nature Tracker’s Club, a FREE to join community of young children, their families and educators committed to learning about nature and doing good things for their environment.   Nature Trackers enjoy exploring and having adventures, respecting their environment, collecting things, tracking and observing plants and animals, and challenging themselves to get outside and make discoveries every day.   Download your Dinosaur Train’s Nature Trackers Club Guide Book, when you have completed all four activities, simply mail in the form provided in the book along with a self-addressed stamped envelope and receive an official Nature Trackers member token!

Plus World Habitat Awareness Month is a worldwide observance for the need to protect the habitat of all Earth’s creatures and to make a conscious effort to preserve nature’s ecosystems.  And, Earth Day is an annual day on which events are held worldwide to increase awareness and appreciation of the Earth's natural environment! 

Here are some other fantastic ideas to get children involved in nature:

 

Take the Dinosaur Train Geocaching Challenge!  Geocaching is a modern day, worldwide treasure hunt whereby participants can both hide and seek containers called geocaches.  Geocaching encourages children to explore their surroundings, use observational skills and have an adventure right in their own neighborhood.  Geocaching is a family friendly outdoor adventure that blends technology, gaming and environmental discovery. Each geocache features one of the dinosaurs found on the online Dinosaur Train Field Guide and contains educational information related to that dinosaur.

 

ALSO, Starting April 1, PBS KIDS kicks off Earth Month with three weeks of “Explore the Outdoors” local events designed to encourage kids and families to explore the outdoors and discover nature.   For the second year in a row, in partnership with NRPA members across the country, local PBS member stations will be hosting events with PBS KIDS Explore the Outdoors activities and materials.  From investigations of wind, trees and habitats to nature hikes and recycling activities, families can learn up-close about nature and the environment. For more information on local events, or to pick up materials to explore the outdoors on your own, visit PBS Parents (PBSParents.org/outdoors).
