This interactive webinar for educators explores practical ways to engage young minds with nature-based learning, inspired by themes in the book ‘The Teachings of the Great Outdoors: Exploring Nature, Robin Finds Herself’ by Danisha Dumornay. Discover how to use outdoor experiences to teach core skills such as resilience, teamwork, and environmental stewardship, while sparking curiosity and building strong connections to the natural world. Participants will gain innovative strategies for integrating outdoor-themed activities into their lessons, fostering inclusive learning environments that support students' social, emotional, and cognitive development.

By the end of this webinar, participants will understand how outdoor experiences can develop resilience, teamwork, and curiosity in children, gain practical methods for incorporating outdoor education into existing curricula with minimal resources, and learn strategies for creating inclusive outdoor learning environments that enhance student engagement and growth.
