I agree. It’s sad to me that not every child gets those experiences. I’ve taught Early Childhood for many years and brought as much of all those things into my teaching as possible. I live and work in NYC. It’s a challenge to get those experiences but it should be the basis of all education. Thank you so much.

Thank you for this. We surround ourselves with nature everyday and this resonates with me. Yesterday, we were on a hike with friends. My friends 5 year old was tired about 3/4s of the way to the end. He started crying and saying, “I can’t go on, I just can’t. My feet can’t take another step.” His mother spoke softly to him and rested until he was ready to continue. It reminded me that even the tough times are full of lessons when we immerse ourselves in the forest.
