PLAY IN NATURE 1/5/12

It covers the importance of play, kinds of play, and specific ways to stimulate creative play in the outdoors. Using hands-on techniques, you will re-discover your inner child while seeing play from a child's perspective.
Each participant will receive materials full of useful ideas to take back to your home or organization.
