Spending even a short amount of time outdoors helps children focus for learning.

SCHOOLS

Let’s turn learning inside out

Learning, playing and just being in nature sparks curiosity, creativity, collaboration and social connections. Why not add nature to schoolyards where children spend so much of their time?

We support educators, parents and community leaders working to help kids reach their full potential by greening schoolyards and offering regular opportunities for outdoor learning.
