Children's Programs
We want to give children the opportunity to experience all the benefits of nature. Nature can provide a buffer against early childhood stress and behavioral issues. It is a unique form of stimulation that can help a child’s ability to focus. As a bonus, exposure to bright natural light helps the eyes develop properly, reducing the risk of nearsightedness later in life.
In addition to the effects of nature, environmental education has been shown to improve:
- Environmentally friendly behavior, such as reducing water use, increasing recycling, and participating in community cleanups
- Academic skills (21st Century skills), including critical thinking, oral communication, analytical skills, problem solving, and higher-order thinking
- Motivation to learn, with enthusiasm for and interest in school
- Civic interest and engagement, including feelings of responsibility, empowerment, and ability to take action
