About This Lesson
<p>From the introduction: Our children have a right and a responsibility to know the world first hand. As more and more of them live lives indoors; they will not have days of free play outdoors in tall grasses or on a beach or in a wood. Increasing numbers of children will never have long hours outdoors of gazing; watching; seeing; idly staring; doing nothing at all but just looking at things such as clouds; bugs; birds; frogs; streams. They will not have the opportunity to learn naturally how to observe. We will have to teach them.</p>
