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":"To order - ships in 1 to 3 months","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42547190628510,"sku":"HPC-9780892818785","price":32.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/products\/9780892818785.jpg?v=1681563391","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9780892818785","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
