Eyes open, spring is coming!

Experience Spring with All Your Senses - A Spring Book with Five Read-Aloud Stories for Children Ages 5 and Up

Signs of spring – how do you find them? When Flo, Tove, Nick, Lucy, and Milan search their surroundings, they need all their senses. Because the changes in nature can be tasted, seen, felt, heard, and smelled: Flo discovers edible flowers in the allotment garden, Tove strokes baby-soft leaves on the trees in the garden, Nick is annoyed by a buzzing insect in the caravan, Lucy sniffs out the difference between a poisonous and a non-poisonous forest plant, and Milan not only spots colorful nesting birds in the high-rise building opposite but also a friend. Whether in the city, in the countryside, or in between – if you are present with all your senses, you can find spring everywhere.

In five self-contained read-aloud stories for children aged 5 and up, nature and wilderness educator Doro Ahlemeyer tells what gifts the spring fairy has in store for us and how we can discover them. Illustrated with a spring-like atmosphere and with easy-to-implement tips for spring activities with the whole family.
