Exploring Nature With Children: A Guided Journal
NOW AVAILABLE – NATURE STUDY STARTER BUNDLE
Exploring Nature With Children is a complete, year-long curriculum designed to guide you, step by step, through an entire calendar year of nature study. Completely self-contained, this book has all the information you need to make nature study happen regularly for your family.
Exploring Nature With Children contains:
- An entire chapter devoted to getting you up and running with nature study.
- Forty-eight weeks of themed and guided nature study; four weeks for each month of the year, organised by season. Exploring Nature With Children can be used as a whole year’s study, or dipped in and out of as you please.
Each week’s guided study contains the following:
- A themed nature walk.
Exploring Nature With Children will take you step by step through a themed, Charlotte Mason-style, nature walk. There is no need to hunt through various books and websites; all the information you need is there, leaving you free to enjoy being out in nature with your child.
- References to the Handbook Of Nature Study.
Exploring Nature With Children is completely self-contained, but includes references to related pages in the Handbook Of Nature Study by Anna Botsford Comstock, should you wish to delve a little deeper.
- A themed book list.
With books for children of all ages, you will find a comprehensive list of living books related to the week’s nature study theme. Exploring Nature With Children is a self-contained course, so the book list is an extra tool, not a necessity.
You will also receive the booklist compiled separately, should you wish to use it as an additional planning tool.
- A poem
Related to the nature theme of the week; a classic piece of poetry that can be used for copywork, dictation, or simply to just read aloud and enjoy.
- A piece of art
The name and details of a piece of art that relates to the nature theme of the week has been included. This can easily be looked up online, or in art books available from your local library.
- Extension activities for your child
Here you will find a list of activities, written directly to your child, that will extend their nature study throughout the whole of the week. You will find ideas for crafts, writing, science, maths, and more, with absolutely no busy work.



Hi there, I would like to buy this, but it won’t let me through to purchase. Is there any other way to access it.
Thanks
Hi Lynn, I’m having the paypal trouble too. It is not going through. Can you invoice me by using my email adress? jdtamminga@gmail.com
Thanks for your help!
Doreen
Also unable to buy exploring nature.
I can send you a direct invoice, this resolves the issue. (Which makes me think that PayPal are incorrect in what they are saying!) Let me know if you would like me to do this, I just need your PayPal linked email address, and the name(s) of the book(s) you wish to purchase.

Thank you for your patience!
Kind regards

I am also having an issue, so sending you info directly–though we have 2 bank accounts connected to Paypal so not sure how this will work since normally I select the account to use on the pay page. I don’t think it’s pay pal’s issue, nor is it what pay pal is saying. I think it may be something to do with payhib.com. Hubby is a web dev, I will ask him to take a look and see if he can see anything in the code. Or maybe it has something to do with the fact that I’m not using a PC.
I shall wait to hear from you 🙂
I can NOT get this thru paypal or my credit card…very frustrating!!!
Hello there!
I am terribly sorry that you are having the PayPal issue; it’s a little hit & miss. Most people are fine, but a few are experiencing difficulties. PayPal’s insist that it is an issue with the customer’s address, and thus their bank declines the payment.

Hi, can you please send me an invoice as well. Thank you!
Emailed you, Rebecca 🙂
Are you planning on making this in paper
form?
I have no plans at the moment, Sara.
I would like to be invoiced as well!
Please invoice me also. Thanks Mrs. Seddon!
Hi Lynn, unfortunately I don’t seem to have received the email after paying for the curriculum? Are you able to resend at all please? Thanks
Rebecca Miller
Hello Rebecca!
I am terribly sorry that you have not received your download link, the system is automated, so you should have received an email as soon as you checked out. I shall re-set your purchase now, so that another email is sent to you straight away. It will come from Payhip, the company that host my book online, and go directly to your PayPal-linked email address.
Please could you let me know once you have received it?
Kind regards
Lynn
Hi, I can’t seem to pay either. I have a discount code too. Thanks, Louise

Hi Lynn, I am in Australia (Tasmania) and I’m wondering if your lovely curriculum would be appropriate for us to use here. Obviously we would have to modify months/seasons to fit the Southern Hemisphere. What about flora or fauna references?
Thank you
Hello there, Estelle!
It’s not so much the flora & fauna, as ENWC is about learning about your own wee corner of the world. It is as you say the seasons being back to front for you! Have you looked at the sample? That shows the themes & a sample week.
Lynn
Hi Estelle
I am a Tasmanian Early Years teacher. Did you purchase this book? Has it been useful in our context?
Andrea
I am now 12 attempts and 5 hours into trying to download my purchase. After 3 attempts to get the links to work to purchase it. I am confident that it is neither my new laptop or faulty wifi. I am beyond frustrated. If this issue is not resolved I will be forced to request either a paper copy or a full refund immediately. This has been a very very frustrating process for a very busy work from home homeschool mom.
Hello there
I am terribly sorry that you have had such a disappointing experience with my book; as a fellow busy, working from home, home educating mother, I fully appreciate how frustrating that would be.
I have emailed you at the address used to leave this comment.
I shall wait to hear from you, and again, my sincere apologies!
Kind regards
Lynn
Can you please invoice my paypal?
I would love to buy this. Could you invoice my paypal?
Hi do you have an email address that isn’t facebook please? I cant find any contact details for you. Thanks
I’ve tried to order several different times and was unsuccessful. Maybe invoicing me will work?

Hi, I was wondering if you currently have any coupon codes? Thanks
Hi, i bought the exploring nature curriculum and the journal yesterday, but I haven’t had an email with the link to download.
Hello there!
I have just replied to your email.
Lynn
Hello! I bought this ebook a few years ago and we absolutely loved it, but somewhere along the line I’ve changed phones and realised that I no longer have it on my device… obviously I’m really sad about this as it’s a beautiful resource and I’m regretting not having printed it out at the time- I don’t suppose that you have a record of previous customers do you? I’d rather not have to purchase a second copy-as home educators we have a limited budget for such things!
Many thanks,
Jenny Hanson
Good morning, Jenny!
Yes of course. I cannot find anything using the email that you used to comment on my blog. If you could please email me letting me know the correct email address, I can find you & re-set your purchase so that your link is re-sent.
Kind regards
Lynn
Hi, I’d like to buy this as well. bess2204@yahoo.com
Thank you!
Beth, I am terribly sorry that you are having this PayPal issue; it’s a little hit & miss. Most people are fine, but a few are experiencing difficulties. PayPal’s insist that it is an issue with the customer’s address.I have been sending out invoices, but it appears that they no longer work either. Customers are telling me that they are able to check out without actually logging into PayPal, which has resolved this issue for them. May I suggest that you contact PayPal directly and ask them to look into this for you? I would be most interested in what they say to you, as I can get no further with them! I am so sorry that I am not able to help.
Kind regards
Lynn
I’m also having some PayPal difficulty, can you invoice me at kasper1042@aol.com ? Thank you!

I have tried several times to purchase this but it won’t let me as there is a PayPal error. Is there any other way to pay, please?

I have been sending out direct invoices to those affected, but it appears that they do not always work, either. If you would like me to try this, please do let me know your PayPal-linked email address.

I have unsuccessfully been attempting to purchase this through PayPal for months always with the same error msg “we can’t process your payment right now so please try again later. We’re Sorry for the inconvenience.” I would like to get this especially before the price goes up. It looks as though lots are having similar issues. I am willing to have you invoice me directly if that will work? nogirlnextdoor@hotmail.com
Thank you for your patience! I have sent you an email & invoice.
Hi, I just purchased this curriculum after having trouble with PayPal. I noticed that many have had trouble paying and I may know why. My bank blocks payments that are international. So when trying to make the purchase it repeatedly blocked the transaction until I called and found this out. They did a lift with my permission. The payment goes to United Kingdom so you may have to call and lift the block to make the payment. I hope this helps.
Thanks again
Blessings!

Thank you, Latista! That is kind of you to take the time to share.
Can I get a direct invoice as well? I am having issues paying. I am going to try contacting paypal and see if I can get it resolved.
Can I get a direct invoice? My paypal won’t work either!
