Children often have their first science experiences playing outside. Backyard nature is often one of the first science experiences young children have. Getting them outside to play and interact with nature is an important step in nurturing a lifetime of enjoyment in the outdoors. Beth's Backyard Friends is the second installment of the Little Beth learning books. Little Beth has her own playground out side in her backyard. Meet her friends and learn how each one plays a specific role in the course of nature. Spiders, birds and more, come to life in this delightful series. Enjoy!
