With several seasoned nature interpreters now on staff, we know how important and — okay, let’s be honest — FUN it is to build out our libraries of interpretive resources. Here’s the thing: We interpreters love our kits, props, and books, whether we’re preparing for our next guided walk or in the midst of an outdoor storytelling session with children.
Fortunately, our Outdoor Learning Store (a charitable social enterprise with 100% of proceeds supporting non-profit outdoor learning programs) not only has your essential interpretive tools and resources covered; we have recentlyonboarded some all-new kits (scat replicas included… and, yes, as real looking as they are, they are replicas — we promise).
Here is the updated list of our Top 10 tools and resources to support your interpretive programs:
- Animal Tracks & Traces Teaching Kit
- Invasive Species Education Kit
- Fold-out Nature Guides like Bugs & Slugs, Pond Life, Butterflies & Pollinators, and The Night Sky: A Glow in the Dark Guide!
