I love my world by Chris Holland
Mentoring play in nature, for our sustainable future
A local Devon lad; Chris Holland has worked with children for many years, teaching them ways to enjoy and appreciate the natural environment, mostly through play.
His latest book brings together his skills as a keen environmentalist, a teacher of bushcraft and outdoor skills and somebody who believes and helps to create a sustainable future.
A lovely book for any parents, teachers and anyone helping to create a better world.
Many of the activities Chris shares in this lovely handbook are linked to the national curriculum.
I love my World is a new guidebook to rekindle the naturally playful spirit and develop a deep connection with nature from an early age.
Full of bushcraft, environmental art, nature awareness and outdoor play activities, as well as mentoring tips and beautiful images, this book will make you want to pack your bags, step out into, and celebrate our wonderful world.
It’s for parents, environmental educators, play rangers, forest school leaders, teachers, aunties, uncles...in fact anyone with a love of our world who spends time outdoors and enjoys sharing it with other people.
The Green Parent magazine book of the month December 2009
"This book is far beyond a mere collection of outdoor learning activities. Chris Holland takes a holistic view of our current global environmental crisis and presents a heartfelt as well as intellectual response to it by taking our young people outside to learn to play and play to learn.
It tackles the head, heart and hands of outdoor environmental education and prompted me to re-evaluate not just what I do as an outdoor educator but why and how."
