Each herb playfully introduces itself and talks about its habitat and many uses. With fun, easy-to-follow activities, herbalist Ellen Evert Hopman teaches children basic herbal skills and invites them to make a sunflower seed mosaic, sew a catnip-filled mouse, and dig for Jerusalem artichoke roots. The book also includes simple recipes that children can use, with adult supervision, to treat minor ailments--peppermint tea to soothe a troubled tummy or horse chestnut salve to heal a scraped knee. Children gain a sense of self-sufficiency and awe for the earth's treasures by eating wild nettle greens, sprinkling a sandwich with nasturtium flowers, making strawberry honey, and learning to season food with dill they've gathered themselves. Parents and teachers will appreciate how these earth-centered activities are placed within a broader social and environmental context. Sixty-seven full-color photographs enable children, parents, and teachers to identify these herbs during walks and field trips. \u003ci\u003eWalking the World in Wonder\u003c\/i\u003e gives children a direct and joyous experience of their connection to the natural world and inspires a lifelong interest in their own health and that of the planet.","brand":"Healing Arts Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48684404768997,"sku":"NP9780892818785","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/walking-the-world-in-wonder-isbn-9780892818785","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
