Hi Bernard. Hearty welcome to C&NN Connect. Have you given the speech yet? There may be some resources on our web site, www.childrenandnature.org, that could help, including research and videos. Let me know if you want more ideas about that. While on the forum, I hope you make yourself at home in discussions and groups. Our International C&NN Connect group and our Natural Teachers Network may be especially appealing. Hope to see you again soon. Cheers!
