Overview
Forget about keeping this book clean. It’s time to get messy—with nature!
This book is a total mess—and that’s the fun of it.
This Book Will Get Messy: Nature is an interactive journal for adventurous kids ages 6–11 who want to get their hands dirty and their imaginations fired up. Instead of telling children to stay neat, it gives them full permission to crumple pages, stomp with muddy shoes, rub bark, tape down treasures, or even leave berry stains that splatter across the paper. Every mark and smear becomes part of a living, one-of-a-kind creation.
Organized into five themes—Observe & Collect, Touch & Texture, Build & Create, Move & Play, and Reflect & Invent—this book guides kids through 45 outdoor prompts. Activities include taping down crunchy leaves, sketching fast-moving animals, creating camouflage patterns, chasing shadows, and writing goodbye letters to litter. Each page blends fun with a touch of stealth learning, encouraging observation, reflection, and creative risk-taking.
Designed for families, classrooms, camps, and kids who love exploring, this book transforms everyday outdoor time into a playful, creative adventure. It doesn’t require glitter or fancy supplies—just imagination, dirt, and the thrill of getting messy.
The first in a new series from SkyTree Book Fairs and Bushel & Peck Books, This Book Will Get Messy celebrates curiosity, courage, and creativity—one mess at a time.
