Outdoor Nature Learning Center
Research shows that when children have regular contact with nature they learn and grow better physically, developmentally and in relationship to the natural world. Since 1998, research by Dimensions Educational Research Foundation shows that a connection with nature benefits children. It strengthens their powers of observation and creativity, builds visual-spatial skills, improves the ability to concentrate, even among children with behavioral challenges, enhance motor skills such as coordination, balance, and agility, and develop imagination and a sense of wonder….motivating factors for life-long learning. The textures, shapes, and warmth of nature ignite their senses as they discover the environment and develop life-long skills. We believe in the power of nature to teach and inspire young children as they experience it in their lives.
