Mindfulness in nature encourages individuals to engage in fulfilling relationships with the natural world. With the constant distractions of social media and modern society, it’s important that children have opportunities to spend time relaxing and connecting outdoors.
Read the recently published children’s book, then learn more at the website:
SLOW DOWN: 50 MINDFUL MOMENTS IN NATURE written by Rachel Williams and illustrated by Freya Hartas features dozens of two-page spreads exploring natural wonders that are often overlooked in today’s hectic world such as a spider spinning a web. The book concludes with an exercise in mindfulness for young readers.
CHILDHOOD BY NATURE is a website encouraging a reunion of children with nature. It includes a blog, learning center, activity finder, and ideas for armchair naturalists. The resource is filled with ideas for librarians, educators and parents.
