BE AWARE OF & BE A PART OF NATURE

Today, with the development of industry and technology, while cities are transforming, children grow farther from natural environments due to the decrease in natural areas. In addition, children cannot realize the importance of natural resources because they spend less time in natural environments. Studies show that individuals' bonds and relationships with nature during childhood affect children's sensitivity to the environment and environmentally friendly behaviors in adulthood (Chawla, 2007). According to researches, spending time in natural areas benefits people of all ages in terms of mental and physical health. (Maas et al.2006; Bowler et al.2010; Cox et al.2017). In addition to having open spaces in the areas where individuals live, it is also important that they are aware of those areas and be able to make use of them.
