Memories of The Great Outdoors

Join me on a nostalgic journey back to the simple joys of summer, where outdoor games like red light, green light and hopscotch created timeless memories. Fueled by concerns about rising childhood obesity and screen time, I've crafted a six-part summer series for parents and educators. Together, let's explore the essence of high-quality outdoor learning environments, assess current needs, and design intentional, age-appropriate, and sustainable blueprints. As an advocate for hands-on play, I believe in creating a world where fresh air, mud pies, and boundless imagination are essential to every child's learning journey. Share your cherished outdoor memories in the comments, and let's make this summer a celebration of exploration, discovery, and the enchantment of childhood.
