Outdoor Education Curriculum and Nature-Based Teaching

Learn what a solid outdoor education curriculum and unique nature-based teaching methods can do for your outdoor program. Whether you are a parent, teacher or practitioner of wilderness leadership, we hope you'll find something new and valuable here.

There are different types of outdoor education activities, and many different nature-based teaching methods. We will provide creative teaching ideas and more gleaned from over 25 years of working with youth and adults. Our approach is to give you field-tested ideas that will allow you to become or train others to be a solid nature instructor.

We are passionate with regards to teaching kids about nature (adults too!), and hope to provide the outdoor education training and resources here to start you on that journey.

Most of the information here (and much more) is explored in detail in: Coyote's Guide to Connecting with Nature
