Publisher's Synopsis

Embrace the cycle of the seasons with children. Sit at the edge of the bush with Dr. Hopi Martin, Waabizheshi Oshkaabewis (Ojibwe Marten Clan Sacred Helper, Messenger, Fire Keeper, Lodge Caretaker) and educator, and bring a richer way of living with the land to the children in your care in this space of meeting between Indigenous and settler-colonial worldviews. Learn to consider child development and education more wholistically following an Anishinaabe Seasonal Pedagogy that has relevance to how learning happens for all Peoples and Nations. Listen to Dr. Martin's personal stories of learning to listen to the land with his own children and come to a deeper understanding of the natural pattern of children's unstructured outdoor play as you learn to make connections and relationships with the land you live on.
