Connecting the World's Children to Nature

Early childhood educators, members of the environmental community, environmental designers, and community planners are called together to effect changes that make developmentally appropriate nature education a sustaining and enriching part of the daily lives of the world's children.

At the Working Forum on Nature Education for Young Children, a team of educators, environmentalists, and designers from 25 nations will guide participants through learning from innovative nature education models and exploring collaborations across professions. Vicki Stoecklin, Education and Child Development Director for White Hutchinson Leisure & Learning Group, will help facilitate some of the sessions at the event to be held Oct. 16-19 in Nebraska City, Nebraska. For those of you who are looking for the next step after attending the Early Childhood Facilities Design Institute, this is it. Click on the link below to learn more and register:
