Family Nature Clubs: How to Start a Wild Play Group

QUICK FACTS

  • The C&NN is a non-profit with the vision and mission “to give every child in every community a wide range of opportunities to experience nature directly, reconnecting our children with nature’s joys and lessons, its profound physical and mental bounty.”
  • Richard Louv is Chairman and author of “Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder.”
  • One of the ways they fulfill their vision and mission is encouraging families to start their own nature clubs in their communities. I think of it as a “wild playgroup” with parents making natural discoveries along with their kids.
