Awaken young children to the purposeful movement of squirrels and their own sense of work and playIn Squirrels Scamper, two young children—Kamali and Josiah—step outside to discover the busy world of squirrels in their own backyard. As they watch the squirrels scamper, climb, and jump through the crisp autumn air, the children join in the fun—testing their own balance and agility as they mimic the squirrels’ playful movements. Whether gathering twigs for their nests or searching for acorns, the squirrels are always on the move, and so are the children! After a day of joyful exploration and teamwork, including raking leaves and diving into leaf piles, the children realize that, like the squirrels, we too spend our days working and playing, celebrating the harmony of nature and the rhythm of life.Squirrels Scamper Shows that children can connect with nature and its important lessons no matter where they live Engages young children in reflecting on the natural world Includes activity ideas to engage children in learning about squirrels in their own neighborhoods This book is part of the Outside Our Window Board Books series, which encourages children—especially those in urban neighborhoods—to explore, protect, and delight in nature.
