Childhood is a very special and magical time. Childhood is sacred.
Childhood is when we learn about the world and ourselves, and provides a foundation of who we’ll be in the future. That is why it is so important to have experiences in nature, exploring the “Wonder” of it all.

I've just been asked to create an "International C&NN Connect" group so please do stop by and say hello there. It will provide a place for people to share news, views, ideas and activities from all over the world http://childrenandnature.ning.com/group/internationalcnnconnect
Oh yes...and the Scotland group welcomes members from all over the world too. It will give you a wee insight into what's happening in this country about children and nature. You can flag up "Toffee the Highland Cow"!
Best wishes

Our eldest son is taking photography at school and has just had his first dark room experience. Before the children were born, my husband and I converted a small bathroom into a dark room-such a magical experience watching a picture develop right in front of your eyes. Now a days, it's all digital-which for kids (and probably most adults) is great because they get to see their creativity immediately.
The outdoors has endless possibilities for a photographer - whatever age they may be.
I'm loving your website!
Have a wonderful weekend.
We have the Toffee books in some tourist locations-Edinburgh Castle, Glamis Castle etc but hadn't thought of Visit Scotland direct-thanks for the advice-I will look into it.
Do you still have snow?
Nice to meet with another Scot on C&NN. Thought you might like my guest post featuring my favourite Scottish animal- The adorable Highland Cow :10 Great ways for kids to spend time outdoors: http://bit.ly/9EyhwJ
