Cleveland Metroparks is devoted to helping kids learn through nature.

Some research shows that kids who are immersed in nature learn and develop better than those who don't interact with the natural world. Park educators provide young children with hands-on interactions with bugs, plants, and animals, and take kids outside and bring nature into the classroom.
