How to Raise a Wild Child: The Art and Science of Falling in Love with Nature
American children today spend 90% less time playing outdoors than their parents did. Studies have shown that this is detrimental to children’s mental state, as exposure to nature can relieve stress, depression, and attention deficits. Distilling the latest research in disciplines such as psychology, neuroscience, biology, and education, How to Raise a Wild Childdescribes the long-term cognitive and emotional benefits of regaining a connection with nature and thus fostering a sense of place that can nurture emotional health and produce academic success.
