The Garden Classroom
The Garden Classroom is an activity book that turns backyards and parks into playful learning spaces for young children. Written by early childhood educator Cathy James, it’s packed with nature-based ideas—from alphabet gardens and outdoor art to mud-kitchen math and science investigations. Parents appreciate that activities are clearly explained, use simple materials, and emphasize curiosity over perfection. It’s ideal for preschool and early-elementary ages, especially in families who want more outdoor time and less worksheet time. As a single paperback that can fuel months of nature play and cross-curricular projects, it offers excellent value.
