"Here's a play prescription you can use. Kids love it (and doctors do, too)."

I just posted on my blog about a program in Portland, Oregon where pediatricians are prescribing play and family-friendly activities for kids who are overweight or obese. Sounds like a fantastic way to change the world, and I know there are other programs like this out there. I think Kaiser Permanente is a big player here. Anyone have other places they know of where this is happening? Here's the link to my blog:…See More
Judy Molland replied to Richard Louv's discussion Ways to make the outdoors safer for children and families"Thanks, Ken. My presentation went really well, but was quite different from usual - an audience full of a majority of teenage boys! (They were AP English students who have a requirement to attend at least 3 author events - and they chose mine!) So…"

Great to "meet" you! Look forward to a visit to Sacramento so we can meet in person!
All best, Judy"
Judy Molland replied to Mike Barlow's discussion What are your favorite kids outdoor books, products, activities?"Hi Chip,
Good to see your name! I was thinking of you and how you created fairy castles with your children (your post from a few months ago) - since I'm doing a couple of events with children at my local library this week. Hope you're…"

Thanks so much for getting my book! Do let me know what you think of it. It just came out in September, and has been doing pretty well so far. I am from England, but moved to the U.S. about 25 years ago - but still go back every couple of…"

- Thanks so much for asking! We had a lovely turn out. Beautiful camp hidden in the middle of Conchord, NH. Amazing town. Can't wait to go back.
During our presentation, we shared all of the great tools available to parents today, such as your book and others. After the main presentation, we hosted two break out sessions. There we took the two groups out on a nature walk and shared some ideas from your book and a few others. The participants seemed to have a great time.
We will be using some of your ideas for our upcoming events. I'll write up a book talk for your book on our website www.kidsadventuring.org in the coming weeks. Can I use an image of the cover?

- Thanks so much for the note. We have really been enjoying your book. I like the set up and the information. We get to repay the favor later this week, where we will be presenting and then talking about Richard Louv and the Children and Nature Network.
C&NN Connect was created to support people and organizations working worldwide to reconnect children and nature.
