Arctic and Antarctic Activity Book available from NOAA
NOAA's National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science offers the Arctic and Antarctic Activity Book in their ongoing series of regional children's activity books. The series' goal is to begin the process of forming an environmentally aware citizen population, and encourage future careers in marine sciences.
This activity book, produced for the International Polar Year of 2007-2008, is for K-5th graders. The 25 page book is filled with information about both poles, along with facts, drawings, mazes, find-a-word puzzles, connect-the-dots, and other activities about organisms and life in the coldest areas of the world.
To download the activity book and to learn more about the series, go to their website at:
