With rising childhood obesity rates and
children’s heavy use of electronics, the need
for quality time in nature is greater than ever.
Put away gadgets, turn off screens, and discover
all that the natural world has to offer.
Celebrate Nature! is filled with hands-on
activities to revive children’s connection with
nature. Each seasonal section—autumn, winter,
spring, and summer—introduces seven themes
with countless ways to integrate nature into
your classroom. Chapters encourage reflection
of your own memories of the seasons and
provide activities that address science and
discovery, math, blocks and building, language
arts, reading, writing, dramatic play, art, and
music. Also included are sample letters and
suggested at-home activities to support family
participation in this important learning.
