Have you noticed that children are rarely seen outside anymore? We all know the reasons why. But this lack of extended time outdoors is reaching pandemic levels and taking a serious toll on our children. Obesity, depression, anxiety, attention deficit disorder are just some of the maladies associated with NDD. A movement to address Nature Deficit Disorder has taken hold and is spreading across America. This book encapsulates what so many keep trying to put into words. And it does it with great insight, sensitivity and depth.

~If you have children, or know or work with children, this book is a must read as the insights you glean will serve them and their earth for many years to come.~

 

Parents and teachers know how difficult it is to get children back outdoors. But The Nature Man has been doing just that for decades. He has a powerful personal mission to educate adults and kids through The Neighborhood Naturalist Program which gets kids back into the natural world, exploring, learning and connecting with the earth by relying on their natural curiosity, instincts, sense of play and comaraderie to restore a healthy kinship with life in their own backyards and neighborhoods.

 

His very personal and deep connection with nature and the earth becomes evident as he so clearly and eloquently directs the reader along a path of understanding the world around us. It is this understanding that inspires this small but incisive book which beautifully pinpoints the essentials for good nature parenting. The concepts are beautifully developed by The Nature Man and designed to be quickly implemented, bringing results immediately.
