Inspire a love of geology with this guided journal that teaches children to observe, record, draw, and learn about rocks and minerals.
Turn every rock-hunting walk, beach trip, museum visit, camping adventure, or backyard discovery into a treasured memory. Rock Log Kids gives children a fun, easy way to notice rocks and minerals, write about what they find, and draw or photograph their discoveries.
Designed for ages 5 to 12, this guided logbook helps kids record where a rock or mineral was found, what it looked and felt like, what colors it had, whether it was shiny or dull, and whether it had crystals, bands, layers, veins, or other special features. Along the way, young rockhounds will also find fascinating geology facts, hands-on activities, and kid-friendly explanations of rocks, minerals, the rock cycle, hardness, famous rock formations, and more.
Perfect for family time, school science studies, backyard exploring, and other screen-free learning fun, Rock Log Kids by Daniel P. Brandt and DeAnna Ortiz Brandt helps children slow down, look closely, and create a one-of-a-kind keepsake worth cherishing.
