Hi!

My name is Sherri Larson. I’m a mother of four kids, and I’ve been married for over a quarter of a century.

I have many life experiences that I would love to share with people to help their lives become better.

My goal with this site is to encourage people to get outdoors, create healthy habits, and provide ideas for parents and teachers to get kids outdoors creating those healthy life habits and improving their overall physical and mental health.

Some of my hobbies, which I plan on writing about, include photography, rock collecting and polishing, kayaking, camping, downhill skiing, hiking, dog training, felting with llama fiber, and gardening. I also enjoy visiting as many national parks, state parks, and caves as possible. I want to encourage people to explore new places and give them ideas of what is out there.

Teaching outdoors about nature and the world around us is a passion of mine. I’m planning on writing about this as well for all my teacher friends out there. If you don’t know me; I’ve had an amazing experience getting to teach second graders outside in the woods.  Before I became a classroom teacher and special education teacher, I was a naturalist. Currently, I work as an underground naturalist in a cave and as a downhill ski instructor. Providing ideas for parents and teachers to get kids outside more is my goal.  A place where people can share ideas to get kids outside is another goal of mine. I know that the more people who add ideas to this site the better chance we have of getting more kids outdoors. If kids never go outside; they will never learn to appreciate our Earth and grow up wanting to protect it.
