How we can shape the environment for our children to foster their innate desire to learn and explore. Parents wish for their children to have a learning space that sparks their curiosity, encourages them to investigate and ask questions, and instills a joy for learning. Carolin Rückert, a dedicated founder and principal of the Outdoor School, and Matthias Kerr, a scientist, nature-oriented coach, and father of a child at the Outdoor School, demonstrate in their book how learning and school can be reimagined – with nature as both a learning space and a teacher.

Children are naturally good learners because the whole world is their learning and development space from birth. Nature has been proven to promote mental and social development, creativity, a sense of exploration, and concentration. Outside, all children are in their element, whether in the woods, at the market, on a farm, at a landfill, in a garden, or in a park, as well as in a thoughtfully designed children's or classroom, using both analog and digital tools. The book presents practical insights with a focus on children's needs, showing how child-friendly learning works and how to create conditions for life with school children that allow them to learn easily and joyfully. Because the school system must work for children, not the other way around!
