The first campfire guide exclusively for girls!

Encyclopedic, nostalgic, and with just a tiny shiver of risk, this collection of enjoyable activities gives girls all the information they need to have the perfect campfire experience. They’ll learn the basics of building a fire; the difference between an A-frame and a teepee fire; how to put the flames out properly; a range of safety procedures; and first aid for minor burns. Girls will also find plenty of fun things to do as the embers glow: recipes for tasty treats, instructions on making a comfy campfire seat, camp songs to sing, and ghost stories guaranteed to frighten the pants off everyone. For those who can’t make it to the great outdoors, there are even suggestions for bringing the campfire experience inside, from starting a fire in a fireplace to making fondue-style S’mores. No fireplace? No problem! The kit includes a DVD of a super campfire with a singalong soundtrack and scary music for story hour.

Enjoy the total, thrilling experience of going to a major league baseball game — without leaving the house! Complete with a quartet of eye-popping four-page gatefolds, plus photos throughout, Take Me Out to the Ball Game captures every exciting moment: entering the stadium with the expectant crowd, buying that tasty hot dog, waiting through a rain delay, hearing the satisfying thwack of ball meeting bat, taking that 7th inning stretch, and cheering the umpire when he gets it right (and booing him when he doesn’t).

For every young fan, especially one going to a game for the very first time, this is the perfect guide on what to expect — and a great way to remember what happened.
