Charting, journaling, and following the moon through seasons, this in-depth journal can help young astronomers observe and record Earth's natural satellite. The set-up is like a traditional lined notebook with coloured childlike drawings and prompts for facts and thoughts. For those who are academically minded or really into the moon, this could get the excitement flowing. For many of us, though, it may seem textbook in style, and the repetition could disengage from lasting appeal. Cool idea though, and if picked up casually and wandered through, most people can find some joy and learning.
I know that this book is for children, but I love nature and the phases of the moon which is what drew me to this book. I enjoyed the guided promps that takes you through each of the moon's phases.
Wren’s Moon Journal is a great introduction to the magic of the moon, blending simple science, creative prompts, and mindfulness. It encourages slowing down, paying attention, while connecting with nature. It is both educational and soothing, and makes a wonderful addition to a bedtime routine. I highly recommend this journal to enjoy with your child—or as a calming, reflective practice just for yourself.
This book is a beautiful blend of science, storytelling, and self-reflection. It introduces kids to the different moon phases and the traditional names of each month's full moon in a way that’s both informative and poetic. It doesn’t just teach about the moon; it invites children to connect with it. The stargazing tips and monthly worksheets make it a truly interactive experience. Kids can track the moon’s phases, record what they saw or heard at night, express gratitude, and even draw or color the moon as they saw it. It transforms lunar learning into a mindful and creative activity. This is a perfect book for curious young minds who love nature, astronomy, or journaling, or for any parent or teacher who wants to encourage a deeper connection with the world around us.
