How Nature Nurtures


I think that this author points out a very true statement in that kids now a days just sit inside and watch TV or play video games when they could be enjoying the outside creating adventures and building forts in the woods.  I think that nature does help calm kids down and makes them less stressed out about things that are going on in their lives.  I know from experience when I was a kid I always loved going out and building forts with my friends in the woods and playing games at night, and it always seemed to calm me down.  Also after I would get home from school the first thing I would do to take a break was go out and just lay in the grass and watch clouds, and it helped me get homework done and it was way easier.  I can really relate to this article and think that nature really can help kids calm themselves down and really use there imaginations.  Overall I really enjoyed this article it really reminded me of how important being outside is and enjoying the nature around you.
