Developed by Ecosource, the Everywhere Nature Toolkit supports educators, families, and community leaders in fostering children’s connection to nature through outdoor play. Informed by consultations with teachers, early childhood educators, facilitators, and parents across the Region of Peel, the toolkit highlights the benefits of nature engagement, addresses barriers faced in diverse and lower-income communities, and promotes an equity-informed approach that embraces children’s exploration, curiosity, and risk-taking in outdoor environments.
