Okay, it hasn’t been raining for forty days but lately it feels like it. With last Monday being some of the worst, my kids were looking for me to build them an inside fort and while I did build a couple of small ones, my thoughts turned, first to how to make a really cool one and then to camping because my daughter has been asking to go camping.
That said, I got an e-mail recently from one of my favorite organizations, the Children & Nature Network. Long story short, here’s a great article on how some school curriculum’s are turning green. It’s entitled ” Teachers and Schools Embrace Green Curricula” by Harriet Blake at Green Right Now.
And for those of you who are in to camping, check out the Great American Backyard Campout on the National Wildlife Federations website.
Finally, here’s one more article to enjoy from the creator of the Children and Nature Network, Richard Louv. It’s entitled “The Gift of Nature“.
Sincerely-
Green Librarian
