I came across this poem today, posted on Facebook by a teacher friend. Comments below . . .
I googled the author, Nicolette Sowder, and learned that she started a website and Facebook page, Wilderchild.com, that’s dedicated to the idea of nature-connected parenting. Go ahead and click that link if you are interested.
Nicolette writes: “Guide your family back to nature. We were once wild. I want to help you slow down, simplify, and invite nature back into your family’s life. Let’s go wild together.”
You can sign up for the newsletter:
“Slowing down and connecting with the rhythms of nature is an easier path to walk when you are supported by an amazing community of families who you resonate with. There are different areas of the Wilder Child ecosystem depending on where you are in your journey. The thing that connects all those paths is the Wilder Child Newsletter. I will never spam you, and you’ll only get an email filled with updates & goodies once a lunar month on every full moon. Sign up here and get your free Nature Play printable.”
Amen, Nicolette, whoever you are!
Hi Jimmy,
I was just looking up this poem and poet. Was taken to this blog post of yours. Isn’t she great!!! I’m going to sign up for her newsletter. Thanks! And I love the wolf art by Lucy Campbell. Was wanting to send both to friends in Montana.
