What is the best place for education? For the education of different ages and different needs, the answers may be different. For children’s physical and mental development, this “best place for education” may be unexpected, but it is also reasonable - it is not a traditional school or an extracurricular guidance institution, but nature, which has been closely linked to everyone’s life but has been gradually ignored in the modern life of reinforced concrete.

Taking “nature as a teacher”, learning and observing in nature, understanding nature, self and society, and getting physical and mental development are the “nature education” that is popular all over the world.

On August 21, the “Ecological Joint Operation” activity, which was organized by ZEHO ECO and Natural Exploration Camp, ended with the joy of children who were curious about nature.

As the first Natural Exploration Camp by ZEHO ECO in Tangshan, the team was almost overwhelmed by the enthusiastic feedback of parents and children after the activities.

Parents' feedback:

The children's happy faces and unrestrained expressions:

And their innocent, beautiful and childlike works:

Our Nature Exploration Camp team was encouraged by the response. We would also like to share what the camp is.

Why do we do Nature Exploration Camp？

Relying on the professional background of the company’s 25 years of deep cultivation in natural ecology, ZEHO ECO · Nature Exploration Camp is a theme research camp focusing on children and teenagers aged 3-12 years and focusing on “rebuilding the relationship between human and nature” with natural education as the concept. We hope the camp will enable children to connect with nature in exploration, protect nature in action, and understand nature in practice. They should not only relax in nature and explore the beauty of the environment, but also regain their respect for nature and life, become the protector of nature, and explore their inner potential and energy.

What is the concept of Nature Exploration Camp？

With the educational concept of “future oriented education, sustainable happiness for children”, ZEHO ECO · Nature Exploration Camp has built three main research curriculum systems, namely “ecological joint operation”, “biological investigation” carbon “and” everything growing season “, through multi-dimensional teaching mode, so that children can explore in nature and stimulate future oriented competitiveness.

Thinking power · theoretical cognition - under the leadership of the nature tutor, understand the scientific knowledge behind colorful nature through nature observation, classroom explanation, hands-on practice, on-site experience and other ways.

Observation · natural exploration - in the natural ecological environment, break the traditional learning mode and arouse children’s curiosity and exploration of everything through experiential education.

Imagination · cooperative creativity - dialogue between nature and life, insert the wings of artistic imagination for children, awaken their perception of the beauty of nature, and achieve spiritual growth in nature.

Action · Hands-on practice - give play to practical ability, combine what you have seen, learned and thought, and interact closely with the animals, plants and habitats of nature, so that children’s actions can bring new vitality to nature.

Empathy · achievement sharing - through the achievement display, we can more deeply understand the harmonious coexistence between man and nature, learn to respect nature from the heart, love the environment, treat things equally, and fear life.

What will you get from participating in the Nature Exploration Camp？

The Nature Architect

The theme of the second phase of the “Ecological Joint Operation” series of courses by ZEHO ECO and Nature Exploration Camp is “The Nature Architect”. It allows children to bring their imagination and interest into play through collective creation combined with the characteristics of garden layout, leading them to start a meaningful “Garden engineer” career experience, and helping teenagers make career choices in the future.

Plant science research · 15 species of plant search - children’s first challenge is to know a variety of plants and complete the “nine house grid”. Even if they are not proficient in writing, they have to use pinyin and drawing to replace them. The children’s enthusiasm for rushing to complete them one by one is still more intense than the sun in midsummer. The observation ability to get in close contact with plants and the thinking ability to grow up in the designer’s explanation are all gradually growing up in letting children understand the plants. Next time we meet, the children will recognize them!

Map treasure hunting · finding career tools through labor - the second activity requires children to find out the burial place of “treasures” from the flowering garden according to the description of the treasure map. It is also a concentrated exercise of observation and action. With the order of the teaching assistant, the children scrambled to set off - both the “force faction” that put speed first and looked for, and the “intelligence faction” that inspected the map and hit every target without fail. Who is the excellent “treasure hunter” who has found the most treasures?

Fantastic ideas · drawing the ideal garden in your heart - After the lunch break, the “treasure” found finally appeared. It turned out that they were the best friends of ecological designers. Parallel ruler and legend paper are the most commonly used drawing tools. With their help, the ideal natural landscape flows from the pen tips of children who love painting. Imagination, action and empathy are also cultivated during drawing and sharing.

Construction experience · be a small constructor - under the leadership of the designer, children become their ideal engineers. Setting out, measuring, simple and interesting work experience, in which children not only took the first step of building a beautiful nature but also exercised their action power in the professional experience of personal practice, and further embodied their future ideas.

The first phase of the “Ecological Joint Operation” activity has ended, but the children’s journey of getting close to nature, protecting nature and building nature has no end. Soon, more experience opportunities for activities and richer course designs will also be available. Little nature explorers, let’s start with a more harmonious and beautiful tomorrow!
