Thank you, Zeitgeist/Z Kids, for the advance reading copy.

With this fun activity book, you can explore all the sixty three amazing national parks in Amaerica!

I find the information crisp and interesting. Perfect for the reading ages, the book is filled with amazing colourful illustrations and fun, interactive exercises.

Worth it!

This activity book would be perfect for a road trip! I enjoyed that the puzzles and activities were different, with some National Parks including a drawing activity where others had a crossword or word search. I think this could be a great addition to learning about national parks or a good activity to keep kids occupied while traveling.

Fun with National Parks by Nicole Claeson is indeed super fun. It highlights 63 National Parks through the U.S. divided by region. It includes a helpful map, a brief description of what is special about each park, and two activities per park to complete.

The book is heavier on parks in the Western U.S. which I would love to see adjusted slightly to be more geographically balanced so those who don’t live or can’t travel out west can get equal enjoyment from the book. The age range is listed as 6-10 but I would adjust that slightly to 5-9. This would be too easy and not as interesting for my 10 year-old guy.

For a slightly younger age, I love this book. It’s simple, fun and the illustrations are in a comic style that most kids will love. It’s not too wordy and the two activities for each park are a nice balance of artistic, cerebral, easy, and challenging.

This book would be perfect for a National Parks road trip and can be kept to use on future trips as long as the kids are within the appropriate age range.

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC.

Quite a long book for kids, but with all the nice quizzes they will breeze through it in no time.
it just gives me a nice feeling.
Thank you the author, the publisher, and Netgalley for sending me this e-ARC.

This book is so fun for older kiddos! I can’t wait to take my girls to national parks and this will be great for getting them excited. National parks have so much to offer and this adds another level to that. The illustrations are also so fun.
