Taking into account his own childhood and parenting experiences, Mark Granlund weaves together insights and practical ideas for raising children in a nature-minded manner. Included in Fertile Ground is information on developmental theories by Piaget and Erikson and how nature activities can support your child’s physical, psychosocial and cognitive development.

I am reading this book for the second time now and am again amazed with Mark's insight of the human artistic spirit. Loving the re-read and am catching even more gems the second time through.
