Perhaps my favorite subject of all, and favorite place to explore, is the forest. There are so many wonders to see, feel, hear, and learn about in the woods. If you can’t get there or if the weather is not the best for a nature walk right now, pick up some of these educational books about forests to enchant your kids. Learning about nature and spending time out in nature is so very important for any child, whether homeschooling or not. Natural science books for kids, especially those with vivid, real photography are favorite books with my kids.
