Recent research has drawn the link between children's brain development and time spent in the natural environment. In Seasons of Play, Rusty Keeler takes readers on a photographic journey through real child care centers that have embraced his philosophy that natural play space create new opportunities for children to learn and develop. By saying "no" to cookie-cutter care environments, caregivers say "yes" to children's natural tendencies to explore and adapt their play space to suit their imaginations. Looking into natural play environments at actual child care centers, readers will be inspired to create their own outdoor play areas, regardless of location, Keeler's own drawings help readers see just how doable an interactive and engaging natural play space can be - and it can change with the seasons!
