"Look deep, deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better." Albert Einstein
The surroundings and the landscape shape us more than we think. The environment in which we raise our children has a significant impact on them.

Everything that surrounds them is material for experiments and experiments. Water changes states of aggregation, and the temperature at which it takes place is noticeable. Knowledge is acquired automatically, almost imperceptibly.
"Research shows that when playing in a natural space, children much more often invent their own games than in a structured one environment - which is crucial if we want them to be inventive and be able to work independently both in their youth and in adulthood. " Richard Louv
Communing with nature every day triggers great creativity. The claim that a stick and a stone in a child's hands can replace any toy is not enough. Eureka gnomon - I found a research instrument. With an ordinary stick, the Greeks managed to measure the whole world. Children use natural materials unlimitedly. They play with everything they find in their surroundings and what nature and weather give them. They construct small and large buildings, they create their own worlds.
Scientists, inventors, and people of art draw their inspiration from nature. It is thanks to the observation of nature that people have made and are making discoveries that directly translate into progress in every area of life.
All children, if given the opportunity to do so, appreciate the charms of the world outside. It is enough to let them turn into explorers, treasure hunters and creators.
