Children develop life-long learning skills as they discover nature's biggest and smallest wonders through Nature Explore.

Research Suggests Profound Benefits for Children

At the core of the Nature Explore Club is outdoor classroom research. Since 1998, Dimensions Educational Research Foundation has designed natural spaces, materials, and activities.

They observed and qualitatively measured the resulting effects from each of those designs, and from their ongoing research, they have developed convincing evidence that positive, age-appropriate experiences with nature bring significant benefits to children.

Using those research-based designs, the activities featured in Nature Explore connect with children while enhancing concentration and creativity, relieving stress, and developing imagination and a sense of wonder.

As your child goes through their most formative years, give them the gift of nature. They will love the new textures, smells, and beauty that only nature can provide.
