The authors, graduates of the Forest School educational movement, offer in this book more than 30 activities and games, throughout the seasons, developing the social, emotional, and cognitive qualities of children aged 3 to 11, in self-respect, respect for others, and respect for nature.
These activities are punctuated with advice and observations that guide the reader (parent, educator, teacher) to implement them and understand all the benefits.
A true toolbox to reconnect with nature, this book meets the needs of all those who seek to make children happy, autonomous, free, responsible, and respectful of the environment. Table of Contents
