Calling families to return to nature, Bergeron offers simple solutions for how to increase outdoor time and, as a result, overall mental health.

With the continuous integration of technology into every aspect of our lives, there has been a rise in anxiety, depression, and behavioral disorders, especially in children. Reconnecting to nature is one solution that Josée Bergeron has found and is dedicated to helping others find as well. Following the four seasons, each section contains unique themes and topics to bring readers closer to the outdoors in order to improve their mental health and happiness. Bergeron encourages families to feel at home in nature and thrive whether they live in an urban or suburban area, and she offers practical ideas for helping kids to 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.
