Unplug from technology and plug-in to nature through the wonder of your senses

An essential bedside and backpack read for all educators.

A great choice for anyone looking to unplug from our hectic, technology-dominated lives and be immersed in nature to reap the benefits!
― Aly Hyder Ali, urban nature organizer, Nature Canada

PACKED WITH FUN activities, The Book of Nature Connection engages all of our senses for deep and nourishing nature experiences.

From "extenda-ears" and acorn whistles to bird calls, camouflage games, and scent scavenger hunts, enjoy over 70 diverse, engaging, sensory activities for all ages that promote mindfulness and nature connection.

With activities grouped by the main senses – hearing, sight, smell, touch, and taste ― plus sensory walks and group games, The Book of Nature Connection is both a powerful learning tool kit and the cure for sensory anesthesia brought on by screen time and lives lived indoors.

Whisper in birds, be dazzled by nature's kaleidoscope of colors, savor the scented world of evergreens, hug a tree and feel the bark against your cheek, and taste the freshness of each season.

Ideal for educators, camp and youth leaders, caregivers and parents, and anyone looking to reconnect and become a nature sommelier!

Flip to any page, read, and go outside for a new and refreshing way to experience wonder.
― Jennifer Seydel, executive director, Green Schools National Network

Beautifully illustrated, clear as a bell, and joyous. Invaluable for classroom teachers, parents, and outdoor educators.
― David Sobel, environmental education leader, author, Beyond Ecophobia
