Shining Dawn Books

He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun. – Psalm 37:6

Simple Field Guide Hint

Here’s a quick field guide tip that our family has used ever since the kiddos were little.  Before they could write, or even draw very well, I wanted a way for them to note the plants or animals we had identified.  I pulled out a sheet of tiny incentive stickers and placed a sticker on each picture as we came across something during our nature walks.

As the children have grown, we haven’t stopped marking our field guides with stickers.  It’s proven to be a great tool for all of us in remembering what we’ve already identified and in learning names of plants or animals more quickly.   I keep a small sheet of stickers tucked into every one of our field guides for quick and easy marking as we walk.

Can you see the three stickers?

We try to place the sticker so that it doesnt block any of the image.
