In the woods children run amongst the trees, make stuff up, play with natural materials and learn from one another in a timeless environment, which is rich in stimuli and free from set rules.
Reflecting the growing interest for «schools in the woods», an educational model which is expanding in Europe and elsewhere, the book offers an overview of the most recent research on the topic. Specifically, the theme of pedagogy in the woods is analysed in-depth using the authors’ research experience with various nursery services.
