This year we are trying to tackle the 1000 Hours Outside Challenge created by Ginny Yurich. Over the past year our Family has lived in an apartment with no backyard or playground nearby, so we had to be intentional with our outside time. Thankfully we will soon be moving to a 6-acre homestead so Nature Study and Time Outside will come much easier. Below are a list of our Family’s Favorite Nature Study Books that work whether you live in town or the country.

Hello Nature Outside Your Window: A First Book of Nature by Nicola Davies and Mark Hearld.
