Nature Play at Home: Creating Outdoor Spaces that Connect Children with the Natural World

â€œA magnificent resource for transforming backyards into stimulating environments which enhance childrenâ€™s creativity, learning, and fun.â€ â€”Richard Louv, author ofÂ Last Child in the Woods,Â The Nature Principle, andÂ Vitamin N

Access to technology has created a generation of children who are more plugged in than ever beforeâ€”often with negative consequences. But there is a solution. Unrestricted outdoor play helps reduce stress, improve health, and enhance creativity, learning, and attention span. InÂ Nature Play at Home,Â Nancy Striniste gives you the tools you need to make outdoor adventures possible in your own backyard. With hundreds of inspiring ideas and illustrated, step-by-step projects, this hardworking book details how to create playspaces that use natural materialsâ€”like logs, boulders, sand, water, and plants of all kinds. Projects include hillside slides, seating circles, sand pits, and more.
