Packed with activities for children of all ages, this guide covers bushcraft basics, survival skills, nature crafts and ideas for both energising and peaceful outdoor play. Being outdoors can help encourage controlled risk taking, boost social skills, well-being and a healthy resilience, and side-step battles over screen time and classroom-induced fatigue. Build a shelter, design a natural collage, tie useful knots, get to know a tree, light a fire, filter dirty water, make charcoal, go on a night walk, make a bug hotel, create a mini village, whittle a stick, and much more.
