What’s more fun for kids than splashing in a creek?

Make the Scenic Rivers Activity Book part of your child's next adventure and discover the hidden world of underwater creatures known as macroinvertebrates.

The activity book is beautifully illustrated, full of games and puzzles and helps children unravel the mysteries of macroinvertebrates like crawdads, insects and snails (and their food web) in Ohio's high-quality streams and rivers. 

Watch our quick how-to video on the activity guide.

Often referred to simply as “bugs,” macroinvertbrates are small creatures that lack a backbone and are large enough to be seen without a microscope. Did you know that stonefly larvae do “push-ups” to get more oxygenated water rushing past their gills? Or that dragonfly larvae propel themselves forward by squirting water out of their abdomens? Grab the Activity Book and see for yourself!

Suitable for advanced readers on their own or led by instruction, the activity book contains vocabulary terms, puzzles and word games, connect-the-dots, and more.
