Explore, create, and imagine like a girl!

Girls can do anything, and Adventure Girls! proves it! Packed with exciting activities and crafts for girls (ages 6 to 12), this book inspires young adventurers to be curious, innovative, and bold. From stargazing and animal tracking to making a pinhole camera and building a shadow theater, Adventure Girls! is not one of your typical craft books. It empowers girls to-

Develop independence-Many of the activities are designed to be parent-assisted as girls learn to explore and create safely on their own. Delve into science-Discover scientific ideas and principles through constellation identification, bird watching, and compass making. Get their hands dirty-Adventure Girls! encourages outdoor play and exploration, from making a rope swing in the backyard to going on a nature scavenger hunt to building a shelter outside. Express their creative side-These crafts for girls also engage their artistic side, with activities like creating decorative 3D stars, pressing flowers, and folding (and inventing their own) paper airplanes.

Instill confidence and curiosity with this collection of fun, engaging activities and crafts for girls.
