The Mushroom Fan Club
by Elise Gravel
Karen’s P.L.A.Y. previews and companion activity adventures.
P.L.A.Y.ful story preview:
Simple Mushroom Mastery and Mycologists in the Making
*Must have an enthusiastic favorite adult to advise kiddos on this adventure.
P.L.A.Y.-filled companion activity adventures:
- Challenge: Are there mushrooms you’ve seen in a nearby forest that are also in this book? What are they? Can you draw or photograph them?
- Super Challenge: How do you think they came up with such a variety of fun mushroom names and who do you think got to name them?
- Super-Duper Challenge: Before looking up your next mushroom find be sure to create your own crazy name first and record it in your nature discovery notebook – eyes and all!
- Super-Duper-Stellar Challenge: Solve this mystery . . . are mushrooms fungi or are fungi mushrooms?
- Curiosity REMINDER: As beginners it is best to look with your eyes not your hands so as not to disturb the mushrooms. And ALWAYS check with a person who has experience foraging for mushrooms before even considering eating them.
Fungi Finding is FUN!
