The North American Forest Foundation’s Truth About Trees teaching kit provides teachers with everything needed to teach full, interactive, science-based lessons about the forests that are our children’s future. Within each kit, teachers will find fun characters who get kids excited about learning, games that make learning fun, and tokens like stickers and pencils that make learning even more rewarding.
The Truth About Trees teaching kit was designed to provide lesson plans and tools that make learning science-based facts about
trees fun for kids in elementary school. It can be used alone, or in conjunction with a field trip to our traveling museum exhibit, Forever Forest.

“I used the set of cards out of the Truth About Trees kit in my presentation today for pre-K students. I let each pick a card and see if they could tell me if it was made from wood. They were surprised at some of the things and wanted to do more but time was running out. We love the cards for PreK students. Thanks so much for the kit. “– M. Fudge
