Create a "Yard List"

Create a "yard list" of critters that you and your child observe in your yard. This year-round activity hones seasonal observation skills, teaches identification of common Florida animals and serves as a gauge of the success of your efforts to landscape for wildlife.

If you have established a bird-feeding station, for example, keep a pair of binoculars handy, along with the "Checklist of Florida's Birds" (.pdf).
