SUMMARY:Families in the Forest
DESCRIPTION:Local gnome and nature guide.\nJoin SEA volunteers Holly White-Wolfe and Juliet Malik—California Naturalists —for a special educational outing designed for families with young children. The event is designed for children\, their siblings\, parents\, grandparents or other caregivers to enjoy together.  \nWe’ll explore the benefits of time in nature by stimulating our senses with sights\, sounds\, scents\, and other soothing qualities of the natural world. Studies suggest that just two hours per week in nature is linked to better health and well-being. Nature can help reduce stress\, improve mental clarity\, and boost overall well-being.   \nWe’ll take a break for story time on our picnic blankets. Our special guest\, a local gnome\, will share how to identify local mountains\, waters\, and plants. He’ll guide us through how we can start to notice more together. \nCome along with us while we build a sense of belonging to a community that cares for its ecosystem. \nEvent Details: \nPlease no dogs except service dogs on a leash–this helps us better observe living creatures. \nWalking will be on mostly flat surfaces in easy-to-hike terrain. Surfaces may be uneven\, so hiking boots or closed-toe walking shoes are recommended.  \nPrepare for the event: \n\nREQUIRED: Register for the event and sign the waiver form here. (Children must be accompanied by an adult. A registration form is needed for each adult and child.)\nPlease bring a picnic blanket\, water\, and a snack.\nWear layers of clothing\, a hat\, and walking shoes (close-toed).\n\nLearn more about the benefits of “forest bathing” (intentionally spending time in nature) here.   \nAny questions?
