Calling families to return to nature, Bergeron offers simple solutions for how to increase outdoor time and, as a result, overall mental health. Parents are stressed, anxious, and exhausted. Their children are spending an average of five to seven hours on screens and mere minutes outside each day. This book is for every family who is desperate to detach from screens and find some fun and engaging family time together. Whether you live in a big city, in the suburbs, or out in the country, Josee Bergeron will help you find creative and simple ways to bring the rhythm of nature into your daily routine, just beyond your front door. Following the four seasons, each section contains unique themes and topics to bring families closer to the outdoors in order to improve their mental health and happiness. Bergeron encourages everyone to feel at home in nature and she offers practical ideas for helping you connect with nature through curiosity and relatability. Families can incorporate cultural traditions when interacting with nature and can honor the inherent attributes of the particular land they live on.

Whether it's welcoming spring by weaving a wildflower crown, celebrating summer by building a bug hotel, appreciating autumn by preserving leaves in beeswax, or creating a magical ice wreath in winter, families will learn how to embrace nature's seasons and be more in tune with each other and their communities.
