A beautifully designed book full of creative ideas and fun activities to get your children outdoors, with a foreword by Chris Packham. Spending time outdoors and interacting with the elements gives our senses a host of stimuli that cannot be recreated indoors.

Learning with Nature is ideal for parents, teachers and youth workers looking to enrich children's learning through nature and teach them to enjoy and respect the great outdoors. Written by experienced Forest School practitioners, it is packed with more than 100 tried and tested games and activities suitable for groups of children aged between 3 and 16, which aim to help children develop key practical and social skills and gain a better awareness of the world. The book is well-organised and features step-by-step instructions, age guides, a list of resources needed, and invisible learning points. Explore, have fun, make things and learn about nature with this fantastic guide.

Trees & Me contains hundreds of ideas for fun, easy-to-do, hands-on experiences to connect young children to nature, with a focus on trees and forests. Through both outdoor and indoor activities, children explore nature through their five senses, experience trees throughout all four seasons, and connect with their community. The 12 hands-on Trees & Me activities are designed for families and teachers to use with children ages 1-6 in a range of settings, including preschools, childcare centers, and nature centers, at home, or with families and friends spending time together. Special instructions tailor many experiences to children under 3 years of age. Families and caregivers, childcare providers, and early childhood educators can easily adapt the activities as necessary to meet each child's unique needs, the environment where they live, and the materials available. Children learn concepts necessary to succeed in school, including age-appropriate literacy, math, and critical thinking skills. They make music, create things, and gain physical dexterity. They are empowered to work independently and in groups. Through dramatic play and skill practice, they explore careers which plants ideas for a child's future.What's more, research indicates that early exposure to nature and the outdoors improves emotional and physical well-being, enhances learning, promotes positive social behavior, and makes children more likely to care about their environment throughout their lives. Each activity contains background information for adults, preparation, materials, and time requirements, plus explicit connections with early learning standards in science, English language arts, math, and social studies, as well as programs such as NAEYC and Head Start. Art is integrated throughout every activity and STEM is practiced through ten essential skills, , effectively integrating the disciplines of science, technology, engineering, and math. Each activity suggests concrete ways that families and friends can enhance the learning experience at home, including helping out in the community. The guide also provides reading and music suggestions, and valuable appendices, such as tested techniques for engaging early learners, tips for outdoor learning, bringing nature inside, and woodworking, that not only support the activities, but also serve as a resource in a range of situations.

As a child, my fondest memories were exploring in forests, playing in creek beds, finding groves of mushrooms, digging in the dirt, and building houses in trees. Our connections and interactions with nature as we grow, evolve and shape our bodies, personality, interests, and passions in life. Scientific research now shows how nature positively impacts our biology, mental health, learning and connections to the world and people around us. Research also shows a decline in children's health, learning, sense of self and creativity, that is correlated with the excessive use of technology, and reduced time spent outdoors playing. Now more than ever, we must believe in the importance of sharing the gifts of nature, and the love of nature with the world - so they will care for what is most important - the earth we live on, the nature of our planet, and our health and wellbeing. This book has been written to give teachers and parents, a solid foundation in the reasoning for nature connection, and a toolkit full of ideas, and tactics that will make nature connection with children, stimulating, educationally rewarding, and life-enriching for both the adult and the child. The book condenses the scientific research on technology, nature, and how they impact childhood development and learning. In a busy modern world that is ever changing, it is important that parents and teachers are up to date and armed with the most relevant knowledge, to deal with the culture, the world that we are in, the current challenges we face in science, education, and in the roles of parents, mentors and teachers. It is an easy to read, practical guide, that can help shape the way things are done in and out of the classroom, to stimulate the creation of solid foundations for our children's connection to nature to flourish. After all, children deserve to have a lifelong, loving and deep connection to the natural world around them so they can discover the magic of Life.

Field-tested across the country, this comprehensive curriculum expands and extends the role science has traditionally played in the early childhood classroom. The first in a new series, Discovering Nature with Young Children explores the wide-ranging elements that make up the natural world around us. The curriculum replaces simple fact-feeding practices with the development of long-term scientific reasoning, including literacy skills and numeracy skills, such as hypothesis, inference, prediction, and estimation. A companion to the curriculum, this trainer’s guide serves as an indispensable handbook for trainers and administrators interested in introducing staff to the curriculum—from planning to implementation. Special sections outline the curriculum and introduce scientific reasoning to adults, and eight workshops detail the complete curriculum for staff members. The guide also includes strategies for supporting teachers over time through mentoring and guided discussions.
