Abigail W. ★★★★★

The photos of her own kids doing the activities make it feel so personal and doable, like you're getting a peek into a real family's fun. I've already dog-eared half a dozen ideas for our next rainy afternoon, and the lighthearted tone keeps it from feeling like a chore list.

Jason ★★★★★

I grabbed this mainly to get through a rainy Saturday and ended up using it every weekend since. The author's own photos of her kids make the activities feel doable, not staged, and we've already worked through half the book. My six-year-old keeps asking to flip through it herself to pick what we do

Aurora ★★★★★

The color photos of real kids doing the activities are what sold me—my daughter was immediately drawn to the pictures and wanted to try the nature scavenger hunt. It’s refreshing to have a book that’s actually fun for us parents too, not just a list of chores.
