Caterpickles
At Caterpickles (caterpickles.com), we talk a lot about fostering curiosity in kids (and their parents). Most of the time, that means tracking down the answers to questions like "Can sauropods swim?", "How long can a jellyfish sting after it's dead?", and "How do we reset a storm glass?" We also read a lot (books are great for both sparking and answering questions), and celebrate most milestones with a trip to our local independent bookstore. Here's a curated collection of some of our favorite books. A portion of each purchase made though this bookstore will help support Caterpickles and raise money for independent bookstores. Plus, you'll get a great book. Now that's a win-win-win!
