This consists of a series of posts with raised plaques for
"rubbings" on them, showing the trees and wildlife to be searched for
in the woods. A map is provided to help the children find the posts. As
well as spaces to do the rubbings (using a pencil or crayon), there are
descriptions in the booklet about the animals and plants shown. This is an extension activity available. Download the sheets from the website.
