Trees & Me: Activities for Exploring Nature with Young Children

Resource Category: Curriculum/Resource Guides

Project Learning Tree’s Trees & Me: Activities for Exploring Nature with Young Children combines the fascination that children ages 1–6 have for trees with research-based findings about the lifelong benefits of early exposure to nature. Through hundreds of hands-on experiences organized around 12 topics, children are engaged and learning, both indoors and outdoors. Families and caregivers, childcare providers, and early childhood educators can easily adapt Trees & Me to meet each child’s unique needs, the different environments where they live, and the materials available.
