Let's Go For a Walk

Product Information

Explore textures, shapes, questions, concepts, vocabulary, numbers, and words on these journeys by foot. I think it works well for the younger audience it's aimed at and will be a good book for generating ideas around interactive walks. This amount includes seller specified domestic postage charges as well as applicable international postage, dispatch, and other fees. Go on your very own walk guided by CBeebies' Ranger Hamza from the hit TV show 'Let's Go For a Walk' with this book that can be used again and again.

It also offers fascinating little facts that will enchance a child's natural curiosity and are relateable to things they know. To me it’s not one that I would want to read over and over so that’s why I’m not giving it five stars.The more time we spend with this wonderful picture book, the more we love it and the more we hope it gets into the hands of children around the world.

Along the way, they count the boats in the harbour, see a heron take off, spot a boat that looks like a whale and find a tiny crab in the rockpool. Using some bursts into verse, very bright colours and some dynamic presentation of the text, we get prompts to check out the smells and colours along our way, as well as any pairs, man-made numbers and signs, and different textures en route. As a speech-language pathologist, I appreciate the educational standards creatively covered in this book. Covering both city and nature environments, every kid should find something familiar and something more to discover in the world around them.

Each page poses questions that urge children to look for specific colors, shapes, and sizes, to touch and feel the textures of the natural world, to smell the scents of foods and flowers, to listen to the sounds of nature, and more. I also love how this book encourages kids (and adults) to get out and explore and not to take our environment for granted. If you're looking for a fun book with lots of simple nature-based activities and facts for the young years, this may be perfect for you!
