Children Need Nature For The Healthy Development

We Cannot Protect Something We Do Not Love, We Cannot Love What We Do Not Know, And We Cannot Know What We Do Not See. Or Hear. Or Sense.

A Natural Environment Is Far More Complex Than Any Playing Field.

One Of My Students Told Me That Every Time She Learns The Name Of A Plant, She Feels As If She Is Meeting Someone New. Giving A Name To Something Is A Way Of Knowing It.

This Seems Clear Enough: When Truly Present In Nature, We Do Use All Our Senses At The Same Time, Which Is The Optimum State Of Learning.

Every Child Needs Nature. Not Just The Ones With Parents Who Appreciate Nature. Not Only Those Of A Certain Economic Class Or Culture Or Set Of Abilities. Every Child.
