Vitamin D Booster
Thomas Berry says, “Teaching children about the natural world should be treated as one of the most important events in their lives.”
How do we teach children about the natural world? We have to be outside!! As the weather is turning cooler, we tend to stay inside more and that is understandable, but please make extra efforts to be outside and get fresh air and some natural Vitamin D from the sunshine. Being outside is a natural immune booster. Also, studies show that in order to build your immune system being outside and eating a little dirt is not a bad thing. So be intentional with taking your children into the natural world and touch the pine-cones, the leaves, and the wonderful pieces of nature that inspire and elevate our senses.
Nature calms our spirit and allows all our senses to engage and our brain receives positive signals. And another benefit is we keep our phone inside and we disconnect from technology to experience God’s amazing and beautiful world.
