πŸ¦” A Full Year of Nature Study for Ages 3–8

Turn every walk into an adventure with The Little Naturalist's Year β€” a complete, beautifully illustrated nature journal that follows the seasons from frogspawn in spring to footprints in the snow.

Your child's guide is Hazel the hedgehog. Each season opens with a gentle read-aloud story, then sends your little explorer outside with scavenger hunts, life-cycle plates, spotter guides, crafts and journal pages.

Every plant and animal is drawn in a realistic naturalist style and is one your child can really find in gardens, parks and woods across the UK and Europe.

🎯 Skills Your Child Builds

  • Fine motor: cutting, sticking, drawing and colouring

πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί Made for European Families

British English spelling, metric units, and safety notes for protected species and poisonous plants and fungi.
