Thriving with Nature Activity Book

Thriving with Nature

Introducing “Thriving with Nature” – A Family Wellness Workbook that will help children and adults understand and appreciate the healing benefits of nature.

Presenting Thriving with Nature, a Family Wellness Workbook, a collaboration between Family Pride of NEO and the Ashtabula County Metroparks. The goal of this attractive workbook is to encourage children to get outside and enjoy time in nature while learning about their mental health. This comprehensive workbook covers topics like finding our strengths, setting boundaries, and practicing mindfulness.  Its creation began a year ago, when Family Pride therapist, Morgan Whitely, recognized the need for families’, especially during the pandemic, to more positively interact and connect with each other. In partnership with Laura Beattie from the Ashtabula County Metroparks, they created a fun, family-friendly workbook for children and their guardians to complete together.

Families can pick up copies of the workbook (and supplies to supplement the activities) at the Ashtabula County Metroparks office, 91 North Chestnut Street, Jefferson, Ohio 44047.   If they have any questions our contact number is 440 576 0717.Families can also pick up a copy of the workbook at Family Pride’s offices, 1110 Lake Ave. Ashtabula, OH or 695 South Street, Chardon, OH
