How to Curate Outside Toys and Backyard Play to Increase Your Child's Outdoor Play [From the Archives]

[From the Archives] This episode was originally aired on July 15th, 2022. Spending time outdoors is real food for the soul, real food for the senses, as it nourishes the young child’s senses. Spending time outside helps your child breathe deeply and be better regulated. Nature reduces overwhelm and eases tension. It will bring your child to a calm peaceful state. One of the great benefits of being out in nature is that it also gives your child time away from screens, and makes it possible for them to intimately reconnect with themselves. Join me in this episode as I talk about the Foundational senses, outdoor activities that strengthen these senses, and how you can create an outdoor play area in your own backyard with toys that you curate that will interest your child and encourage them to spend hours in play outside.  Want to come on the show for a free, anonymous coaching session? Click here to apply Subscribe to our weekly newsletter, The We Nurture Journal Order my new book, The Little Book of Parenting
