S I e r r A C L U b P r O G r A m F O r m A r C H Please join us on Wednesday, March 7 (at 7:00 pm at the North County Branch Library in Clinton) for a presentation on Helping Children Find Peace in the Natural World: Kimberly Borin, EdD will share her research on the importance of a child's ability to connect to nature. In her book, The Sense of Wonder, Rachel Carson asks the question, "Is the exploration of the natural world just a pleasant way to pass the golden hours of childhood or is there something deeper? I am sure there is something much deeper, something lasting and significant." In response, Dr. Borin will talk about the benefits of allowing children to explore in the natural world and to share their experiences and reflections. We'll take a look at our own stories about nature and how those moments influenced our lives. Practical suggestions for helping children enjoy the natural world will also be given. This website will tell you about Dr. Borin and her ongoing work: www. TheEncouragingWorks.com. This program is presented by the South Highlands Group of the Sierra Club and is free and open to the public. C O m e S e e ( A N d H e A r ) W H A T T h e B i g F u s s I S A L L A b O U T !
