2011 New Hampshire Children in Nature Conference
Where the Children Play: Discovering, Creating and Using Outdoor Spaces
October 5, 2011 at the Cody Outdoor and Conference Center on Ossipee Lake
Mark your calendars and join us to explore the many ways we can reconnect children, youth and families with nature, whether by discovering ways to use our backyards, city parks and other existing outdoor spaces; creating new outdoor spaces in schoolyards and neighborhoods; or conserving community land and providing access to community spaces. We invite teachers, city planners, environmental educators, artists, community members, park and recreation professionals, business owners, health practitioners, and others with experience, expertise and ideas to attend.
Keynote Speaker: Dr. Stephen Kellert will open the conference speaking on “The Human Need for Nature, Childhood Development and the Built Environment.”
