    My creative grandson and granddaughter loved receiving this book! They immediately went outside to collect sticks, pinecones and rocks to create special art. They also loved making tree faces! Perfect for Halloween!

    Hi Carla, we’re so happy your grandson and granddaughter are enjoying the Wild Imagination Book! It sounds like they made some wonderful art—and tree faces are such a fun Halloween idea. Thanks for sharing, and for the lovely photos.

    I didn't buy this book to add to my already (almost) complete collection. I bought this as a gift for my sons like-minded kindy teachers. They loved it!
    I've bought this book several times for similar reasons- because I can't let people I know go without! It's just beautiful! Every house needs books like this.

    So many brilliant ideas for getting outside. My child has ASD and chose this activity first from the book and pretended to be Tarzan for an afternoon 👏

    My Wild Child wanted a nature craft cay for her 10th Birthday party and having seen these beautiful books beforehand, I knew just where to go! We had a great day out foraging for items we will need and are all set for her Wild Craft Birthday Party! Can't wait to see what they create. I have since ordered her a Whittling knife for bonus Mum of the Year points! More Green, Less Screen!

    Such a great Christmas present for my 5 year old. We took it on our holiday, went on a bush walk and collected treasures for our birds nest. Such a wonderful time spent gathering and meandering. Many more adventures to be had - such beautiful photos.

    We gave our 6yo grand daughter this gorgeous book, just before she headed off on a camping trip to Tasmania. She has absolutely loved it. Now I will order a whittling knife for her as well. Thank you for such a beautiful, creative book.

    I had great expectations when I bought this art and craft book, that uses things found in nature to create. Instead the book was a bitter disappointment. It was smaller than I expected. It would be more appropriate to call it an ideas book. There are some lovely ideas but a few small pictures and minimal instructions means it not really child friendly. For example making natural dye. The instructions say in a paragraph to cut the fruit or vegetable and put into boiling water. There is no mention of what materials to dye, how long to dye them for, limited instructions on fixing the dye etc. It ends with a pagan warriors oath. And has the audacity to then politicise art and craft by lifting up Greta Thunberg as a woke nature warrior to be admired. Please do NOT tell me who to worship or admire. I just wanted an art and craft book. Not a book of indoctrination.

    So so in love with these books - they are so beautiful to hold and look at, but also have really accessible, fun, low cost, low waste ideas that get the kids outside interacting with nature! Bought some for me and some for gifts too!

    My daughter is a kindergarten teacher and the mother of two boys. Being raised in Vermont, now living in Massachusetts, she wants her family to be “outdoorsy”.
    I was so excited when I came across The Nature Craft Collection!
    I can’t wait to give them to her family for Hanukkah.
    More to come when they open them!

    I love supporting small, independent businesses.
    This company responded quickly to my inquiries.
    Such a fabulous company!

    As a teacher and a Grandmother these are beautiful for all learning, I loved them so much I brought my sister a set and my co worker. It’s not just the activities it’s making the memories and slowing learning and fun down!

    I am a Grandma who ordered these books for my youngest Sons kids ....for Just Because.
    I love using Nature in my own Art Creations so wanted to inspire my Grandsweeties to do the same. I knew too,
    it would inspire Family Outing time together gathering and discovering what Nature provides. They already bought a cardboard cutting saw for my Grandson, so I knew they had that to help create some of the ideas mentioned. I can't give their input cause they have had other life events keeping them busy lately. But I know they Will enjoy them soon. I can't wait to see some of their Creations inspired by the books!!

    The books themselves are absolutely stunning and is something I wish I had as a child. I will be putting one book into a gift baskets for family as a Christmas gift as we all have kids that will love these books! The quality of the books are also amazing!

    I am super excited to get started using these books. My granddaughter is a bit young yet but all of the adults think we could have fun with these activities ourselves. I keep looking through the books picking out projects.

    Hi Julie, thank you for your lovely review! It's great to hear you’re already finding projects to enjoy, and we hope you and the other adults have a wonderful time exploring the books together. Your granddaughter can join in when she’s ready! 😉

    Beautiful book but I dont think its worth $30. There are many what I call filler pages. And 2 of the crafts were fruit picking and a picnic. Also wished they didnt recommend using hot glue if youre eco minded like this book since its actually plastic.

    Hi Sarah, thank you for your thoughtful feedback. We’re glad you found the book beautiful, and we’re sorry it didn’t feel worth the price. Your comments about the filler pages, craft variety, and hot glue recommendation are helpful—we’ll share them with our team. As the focus of our Nature Craft books is to get kids engaged in nature and outdoors, we've included a few things like picnics and fruit picking as activities to provide a little inspiration and make simple events like a family picnic into something a little more special.
    Thanks again, the Your Wild Books team 💚
