Take a walk with a child

Taking a child in walks in nature kindles imagination and awe for the world we live in

Taking walks with children in nature one of my favorite subjects, to write about and do. The best times I remember from my daughter's childhoods were from when we tromped around down in the woods and meadows of the greenbelt with our dogs. We shared the experience of coming across foxes and lightning bugs and night herons and observed the day-to-day changes in the seasons as they grew up.

A child's imagination and creativity and sense of awe is nutured by contact in nature. Read my article this week for more information about children and nature.
