65. Reconnect Your Senses to Understand How Your Kids Learn with Jena Jauchius

Kids learn through all of their senses. But most education only focuses on a few. Most of us are disconnected from several of our senses that we don’t use often. In order to really understand how your kids learn, especially your neurodivergent kids, you need to reconnect with your senses! Jena Jauchius is an internationally-recognized landscape architect, nature play expert, and the Founder of N is for Nature Play. Jena has spent her 24+ year career designing sensory-rich, nature-filled play, learning, and therapeutic environments for kids of all ages and abilities. She specializes in designing supportive environments for all kids, including those with autism and other neurodiversities. In addition to design, Jena loves teaching parents, early childhood professionals, and educators how to reconnect with their own senses and create tailored multi-sensory natural play and learning spaces to grow their children’s unique bodies, minds, and spirits.
