Welcome to the Kids In Nature Network.
 

Being outdoors and in nature is good for us. It makes us happier, healthier, more resilient and more caring.

​

Over the past decades, childhood has changed. Kids have moved indoors as screens have replaced green places.

We act to empower, connect and grow a cross-sectoral movement that gets kids back outside. Join us.
