Re: Nurture with Nature

That's a very interesting piece of writing. I always try to involve my children in the outdoors and nature. It is sometimes difficult because of the various reasons suggested in the text but I feel it's important to keep children connected to the natural world. As a result my children know so much about nature they put their friends to shame and they're only 11, 9 and 5 yrs old. They can name many different species and my 9 yr old shocked her teacher recently when she explained why spiders are not insects.
