In a chaotic world Playful Wanderings creates space for youth to explore the natural environment, find their strengths, build confidence, and make friends. Benefits of nature exploration listed by the program include increased confidence, inspired critical thinking, encouraged movement, reduced stress and fatigue, different stimulation, promoted responsibility, and sparked creativity and imagination, with the source cited as the Child Mind Institute. The program uses the motto, “Not all who wander are lost.” Playful Wanderings notes © 2018 by Playful Wanderings. One parent shared, “My kids learn something new every time!
