Childhood and Nature
Updated: May 6, 2020
This short video explains in the most pure and beautiful way the relationship children can have with nature.
Richard Louv is most definitely one of my favorite authors and this movie is absolutely amazing. It makes you reflect about the present and the future of childhood.
Richard Louv is an American author and journalist. He is best known for advocating and investigating the relationship of children and the natural world in current and historical contexts.
Louv created the term "nature-deficit disorder" in his 2005 book, Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children From Nature-Deficit Disorder, to describe the negative consequences to individual health and the social fabric as children move indoors and away from physical contact with the natural world – particularly unstructured, solitary experience.
