We’re into fall now, but that doesn’t mean we can’t still have some outdoor adventures!

Whether it’s going on a hike, visiting a park, camping, geocaching, or stargazing, Nat Geo Kids makes it easy and fun for kids of all ages to escape the indoors and explore their world.

Here are some books from Nat Geo Kids that will inspire your readers to get outside this fall and winter as well as dream about what they can do next spring and summer!

Nat Geo Kids Nature Guide

Little Kids First Nature Guide: Bugs (ages 4-8)

Discover the many insects, spiders, and other creatures―aka BUGS!―that creep, crawl, and fly around your neighborhood and beyond.

Young explorers learn where, when, and how to safely and kindly find insects, spiders, and other creepy crawlies such as worms and pill bugs with this fun and sturdy take-along guide.

Nat Geo Kids Get Outside Guide

Get Outside Guide (ages 8-12)

This fun-filled guide inspires kids to get out of the house and explore the great outdoors, whether in their backyard, across the country, or around the world.

Full of fun activities, kids will learn how to make backyard bird baths, explore their local state parks, participate in an outdoor community event, and much more. Activities for every season and rainy day activities are also included.

Facts, lists, and sidebars supplement activities to help put information into geographic, scientific, and/or historical context, to help kids dig deeper and learn more.

National Geographic Kids National Parks Guide USA

National Geographic Kids National Parks Guide U.S.A. (ages 8-12)

Read all about these greatest of American treasures — from Acadia to Zion — in preparation for a parks visit sometime soon.

Filled with color photos, information on animals, fascinating lists, facts, maps, cool things to do, conservation tips, and much more — think of this book as your trusted guide to these most majestic of places.

Ultimate Explorer Field Guide: Night Sky (ages 8-12)

This photo-filled, fact-packed night sky guide encourages kids to stop and look up to spot stars and planets right from their own backyards. From Mars to meteor showers, Scorpius to satellites, kids will learn how, where, and when to spot these space-dwelling phenomena in the night sky at any time of year.

With tons of info and interactivity prompts, it’s the perfect companion for backyard field trips, camping, or vacation. Durable and portable, it’s just right for your pocket or backpack!

Weird But True Rocks and Minerals

Weird But True Know It All: Rocks and Minerals (ages 8-12)

Did you know that Montana’s Grasshopper Glacier is filled with millions of frozen locusts that got caught in a storm more than 300 million years ago? Or that Roman soldiers were said to get some of their pay in salt, and the word salary comes from “sal,” the Roman word for salt?

In this latest single-subject Weird But True! book, readers will learn about everything from rocks in outer space to precious gems found in Earth’s deepest oceans and everything in between, including rock-related careers, art, geography, history, consumer products (did you know the average car has 44 pounds of copper in it??) and simple tools, tips and “how to’s” to get outside and become a rock hound!

Nat Geo Kids Safari Kit

National Geographic Backyard Safari Kit (ages 6+)

Dress for adventure! The National Geographic Backyard Safari Kit includes a safari vest featuring handy cargo pockets and carry tabs, a safari hat, and loads of gear for making the most out of any outdoor adventure including a magnifying glass, compass, whistle, and pair of binoculars, all made especially for kids with durability and safety in mind.

The set also comes with a mini pencil and field guide that details characteristics of the different types of animals and plant life your kids will see and provides pages for them to record their observations.

Reader Giveaway: One lucky Jinxy Kids reader will win a prize pack that includes all five books mentioned above PLUS the Backyard Safari Kit! To enter, just complete the entry form below by 11:59 pm ET on 10/25/22. Good luck!
