Backyard Pets
Carol A. Amato
- Reading
- Choose an activity together, gather any needed materials first, and follow its care and release directions closely; make observing birds or butterflies an alternative hands-on focus.
- Themes
- Learning through wildlife activities: The guide combines facts about backyard animals with investigations, animal care and ways to attract birds and butterflies. It presents wildlife study as a practical route to learning about animal habits and features.
- Worth knowing
- Some activities involve catching and caring for small animals before releasing those considered safe to touch; adult help can support careful handling and release.
