Universal Principles for Connecting Children With Nature We believe it is important for multi-disciplinary groups of design professionals, environmental advocates, educators, health-care professionals and families to work together to design and support spaces and experiences that help children make connections with nature a sustaining and enriching part of their daily lives. For Children

Respect for local cultures and climates and for themselves as a part of nature. Feelings of unity, peace and well-being as global citizens.

it is important that children: We Believe

Have daily access to nature-based outdoor and indoor environments in their early childhood programs and schools.

Be respected as competent, powerful learns and risk-takers who have a voice in what they create and learn through nature.

Be supported in developing life skills through holistic nature-based learning.

For Educators We Believe:

it is important to allow enough time each day for children to explore freely in nature based spaces.

Understand their role as researchers and facilitators who observe children’s interactions with nature and support the emergent curriculum.

Support children’s appropriate risk-taking...

...and adventurous play in nature.

Provide children with opportunities for silence and contemplation in natural settings.

Encourage children’s development of a sense of wonder and a sense of environmental stewardship.

For Families We Believe:

it is important to understand the value of children’s daily connections with nature.

Support children’s appropriate risk-taking and exploration in nature.

Enjoy regular experiences in the natural world...

...with their children.
