The idea behind this book is to provide kids (and their parents) some ideas of things to do outdoors, with a number of activities that can be done throughout the year.

Throughout the book there are several tips, including parent tips, to help your child get the most out of it.

We're really pleased with how the publisher turned our ideas into something that looks fantastic.

The Adventure Handbook - First Edition - Last Few Copies Remaining

The First Edition of The Adventure Handbook was 'internationalised', though we have written a UK-specific version with lots more references. Unfortunately, mergers and changes at the publisher mean this UK version may never get published 🙁

However, a few copies remain in the UK despite launching the book in the US first.
