Instructor: Dr. Barbara Frank
Childhood is very different these days, with children spending very little time in nature. Instead, they are getting addicted to enticing technologies—computers, video games, cell phones and television—with negative effects on their health, emotions and creativity. Dr. Barbara Frank (a.k.a. Doc Rock) advises parents and grandparents to take children by the hand and give them the best gift of all, a deep connection to Earth. In a lively, interactive discussion, she shares Nature's seven key secrets, the knowledge of which will help children to lead healthier, happier and more productive lives.
Dessert and coffee will be served.
Dr. Frank, mother of two and now a proud Jewish grandma of five, has been a professor of geology with the University of Maryland, Munich, Germany, campus; senior government manager at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Energy; nature-based team-building consultant; public speaker, and author of the soon-to be-released book Grandmother Earth, Sharing Nature’s Wisdom with Your Grandkids (www.GrandparentsIntoNature.com).
