Ivy Kids Kit of the Month

Subscribe by 8/29 to start with the August kit featuring the book Over and Under the Canyon by Kate Messner

This month’s Ivy Kids Kit is inspired by the beautifully illustrated story, Over and Under the Canyon, that takes readers on a thrilling journey through a desert canyon ecosystem. Children will explore landforms, desert wildlife, and hidden creatures—above and below the canyon floor.

Included in the kit are over 12 hands-on activities that explore science, math, literacy, art, and engineering. With this kit children will:

• Investigate canyon formation using sand and water
• Design a shelter to protect a desert animal from the sun
  
• Create snakes with "sun-sensitive" beads
• Test and compare the effectiveness of different desert shelters
  
• Explore temperature changes in different locations using a real thermometer
  
• Assemble and decorate a large wooden canyon bird
  
• Create colorful, patterned sand art
• Mold a realistic clay cactus and play a counting game with its spikes
  
• Build a desert habitat with creatures and wildlife featured in the story
• Conduct an experiment to learn how a cactus is able to preserve water
• Plant real cactus seeds

• PLUS SO MUCH MORE

Everything children need to read, play, create, and learn is included! This kit is packed with endless fun!
