In this episode, I'm sharing about my own journey from a child who hated being outside to a mom who loves spending time in nature with her children. I share some tips along the way, including how to find friends to adventure with and how to help your child (or yourself!) dealing with fears about something in nature. I'm also recommending our family's favorite beautifully-illustrated nature books. You'll hear an introduction to the podcast, what you can expect in upcoming episodes, and how your child can be featured in a future episode.

This episode talks about the reasons we might get out in nature with our families, including both the logical "head" reasons and emotional "heart" ones. I share how my cancer diagnosis as a mom of young children that affected how much time I spend in nature with them. I recommend a new TV show I've been enjoying with my daughters, and we get to hear from our younger listeners in our first NatureKids segment.

We know how good time in nature is for all of us. But, sometimes it can be hard to make it happen.”  ..read more
