Bird Log Kids

Inspire a love of birds with this guided journal that teaches children to observe, record, draw, and learn about the feathered friends they see.

Turn every backyard sighting, park visit, nature walk, camping trip, or bird-watching adventure into a memory worth keeping. Bird Log Kids gives children a fun, easy way to notice birds, write about what they see, and draw their discoveries.

Designed for ages 5 to 12, this guided logbook helps kids write about bird colors, markings, sounds, behavior, nests, weather, location, and other important birding observations. Each log page includes simple prompts—such as where the bird was seen, what it was doing, what it sounded like, and what its wings, tail, and beak looked like—plus room for drawing. Along the way, young birders will also find fascinating bird facts, hands-on projects, games, and suggestions for helping feathered friends.

Perfect for family time, school nature studies, backyard birding, vacations, and other screen-free outdoor fun, Bird Log Kids by DeAnna Ortiz Brandt helps children slow down, look closely, and create a one-of-a-kind keepsake worth cherishing.
