The first two Engineer’s Duck Look For scavenger hunts are here

The first two Engineer’s Duck Look For books are here! I made them for kids who spend the trip asking, “What’s that?” and for anyone who’s ever had to say, “I don’t know. Let’s find out.”

Look For is a separate scavenger-hunt series that gets kids spotting engineering in the real world. The first two books — Transport Engineering and Aeronautical Engineering — release together on 15 November.

These are books to take with you: simple visual clues to spot, space to record what you find, and a quick fact to spark the next question. A road trip, a walk or an outing becomes a chance to notice the things we usually pass by.

For the kid pointing out the window: Transport Engineering

Explore roads, crossings, bridges and stations. Look for the engineering that helps people and goods travel, then record what you find, when you found it and where.

If your child spends the whole drive pointing things out the window, this is the one I’d start with.

For the kid watching the sky: Aeronautical Engineering

Look up, visit a park or explore an airport viewpoint. Discover aircraft, airflow and the places that help flying happen.

If they’re the kid who watches a plane until it disappears, start here. Take the book along and see what catches their attention.

What will they spot first?

You don’t need to have every answer ready. Spot something together, ask a question and see where it leads. That’s the part I’m most excited about: giving kids another reason to look at the world and wonder how it works.

Thanks for following along and supporting The Engineer’s Duck. If you take one on your next trip, I’d love to hear what your kids spot first — let me know in the comments.
