Description
|
|
|
|
Children are notorious for proclaiming themselves bored, and parents are apt to say they need to turn off the TV and go outside. This facsimile of a 1936 book provides readers 12 and up with a plethora of hands-on, "old school" activities including camping, sketching from nature, tying knots, stargazing, and treasure hunts, as well as tips for improving one's performance in football, tennis, hockey, and swimming. Lest you think intellectual efforts have been neglected, there are also puzzles, ciphers, optical illusions, and scientific information for the budding naturalist. Hundreds of vintage illustrations appear throughout, ranging from the informative to the decidedly campy in tone.
