The Call of The Wild activity book was created by classroom teacher, Kim Burnett (yes, she is Aaron's wife), to be used by children ages 7 to 12. It contains high interest facts and information about the 15 Canadian animals on Aaron's CD as well as math puzzles, American Sign Language, jokes and riddles and musical notation to Aaron's songs. The activities are curriculum based with consideration given to the multiple intelligences for fun and educational learning. Sadly the book has sold out but you are welcome to use these fun activities to enrich your child?s learning.
