The Handbook of Nature Study Newsletter is a companion to the Outdoor Hour Challenges that are posted here on the blog every Friday. After compiling the results of the Outdoor Hour Challenge survey from earlier in the  month, I have decided on some changes to the way the Outdoor Hour Challenge and the Newsletter will work together. I have outlined all the changes in this edition of the newsletter. It is important to read this edition so you will know how things are going to work for the next year here on the Handbook of Nature Study. Hopefully, this will only make the challenges and your family’s nature study even better!

This edition of the newsletter also includes all the usual things. There are four contributed articles, printable grids and a notebook page, special links, and information about the special bundles available here on the Handbook of Nature Study. Lots of great end of the summer nature study ideas will be found in the newsletter so make sure to download and save your copy. Enjoy!

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 August. If you haven’t subscribed yet, you can still subscribe and receive the newsletter link in the next post that comes to your email box.
