. . . essential for children to interact directly with nature before being presented with abstractions about its importance. . .

Nature-deficit disorder describes the human costs of alienation from nature, among them: diminished use of the senses, attention difficulties, and higher rates of physical and emotional illnesses… Such knowledge may inspire us to choose a different path, one that leads to a nature-child reunion.

How do we support cultural and institutional change? ● Model better behavior. ● Better planning and land use decisions that make nature more accessible. ● Recognize the necessity and provide unstructured playtime in natural settings. ● Ask if in trying to keep children “safe” we are doing them more harm than good. ● View nature as both an antidote and teacher. ● Help schools partner. ● Strive to be imperfect.
