A Sense of Place: Mindful Practice Outdoors

By Annie Davy (Featherstone, £17.99)

The book explores theoretical perspectives on making the most of learning environments outside, plus it goes into a ‘sensory’ model of child development starting with the five senses through to more abstract notions of independence and kindness. It also has a chapter on mindfulness and resilience, and how to develop a connection with the wider community. With case studies, reflection points and practical sections.
