Companion to the Outdoor Hour Challenges

Supporting a Global Community in Their Nature Study

July 2012 Edition: Hot Weather!

The Handbook of Nature Study Newsletter is a companion to the Outdoor Hour Challenges that are posted here on the blog every Friday. In this issue there are special printable activities and a notebook page, additional links and ideas, as well as three contributed articles with wonderful ideas for your family to use when the weather is hot and humid.

I have attached the newsletter download link to the bottom of my blog feed so if you are a subscriber you will receive the link to the latest newsletter at the bottom of every post for the month of July. If you haven't subscribed yet, you can still subscribe and receive the newsletter in the next post that comes to your email box. You can subscribe to my blog by filling in your email address in the subscription box on my sidebar.

Make sure to click and save the newsletter link from the email for future reference.

Winner of the June Newsletter Giveaway!

Kristin from Broom and Crown has won theYour Backyard Monarch Butterfly DVD and Companion e-Study Guide from Crowe's Nest Media!

You can read my review of the DVD and the e-Study guides for more information on this fabulous product. Just a reminder that there will be a Monarch Butterfly Challenge later in the month of July so this would be a great supplement to your nature study.

If you have trouble getting the newsletter to download, try right clicking the link, save the link, and then open it.  (The link is in the email and not in this blog post.) I am not going to be archiving the newsletters at this point. You will need to SAVE the FILE on your computer each month if you want to save back issues.


It is not too late join in with the Summer Sizzle series of Outdoor Hour Challenges. You can find them on the summer tab of my blog or in my latest ebook.
