I came across a website that is promoting children and nature involvement. As it is such a technological world out there, many children have been missing out on the very life and world around them. The site is founded by the author of the book, Last Child in the Woods, Richard Louv. He was the one who coined the phrase, "Nature Deficit Disorder". His book has created a national awareness and movement to bring children and families back to nature. I decided to start my own grassroots club so that the families in my immediate area can become closer with nature. If you do not live in the Utah County area and still want to experience bringing family back to nature, consider starting your own movement towards grassroots, just click on the link above and you can learn all about it! The site has many suggestions and tips as to how to go about starting a nature club in your own area.
As I endeaver to start this nature club (Rocky Mountain Wonders), I would love any advice or suggestions as to what you would like to see on this site.
