Why Nature Journaling?
Why Nature Journaling?
Nature journaling is a meditative, curiosity-sparking wander through nature.
Here, art is a learning tool and science is a method of finding beauty and awe.
In my nature journal, I combine art, science, writing, and wonder to create a physical memory of my experiences.
It deepens learning to help me remember more.
Scientific evidence shows that active learning through nature journaling can change the brain and boost intelligence, at any age.
Spending time with nature, whether rural, urban, or suburban, has many positive mental and physical health benefits.

About Me
About Me
I discovered the joy of nature journaling over nine years ago while homeschooling my kids. Since then, I have taught nature journaling to children of all ages, some of whom call themselves adults. I firmly believe nature journaling is something that most everyone can enjoy and benefit from doing, no matter their background or experience. When not teaching nature journaling, I spend my time going on adventures with my family and messing about in boats.
