Welcome to the brand new Nature Mentoring Podcast!

I recently got involved in an exciting series of conversations with Dave Bauer, author of the book, What’s Under That Rock, Papa?

​Our conversations have been so stimulating and insightful that we thought it would be really cool to start sharing with the larger community of parents, grandparents, educators and mentors.

For this very first episode we had a really great conversation about the benefits of getting children outside to engage with nature on a deeper level.

We touched on a lot of the big takeaways from recent research in child learning and development through nature based experiences… and also gave some tips around how to get started with taking kids outdoors.

This is just the beginning… please do subscribe for more episodes!

ALSO: If you are involved in any way with mentoring kids in nature, Dave and I would be really interested in connecting with you and learn about what you’re up to!
