Join Emily Webster, with special guest Cara Caudle at 8 pm EST on Tuesday November 4th, 2025.

Gathering and using nature’s loose parts can weave children, educators, and the land into one connected learning story. In this 60‑minute webinar, we’ll explore how to gather responsibly, co‑plan with children, and integrate natural materials in ways that preserve learning connections and honor the materials themselves. Together, we will discuss inviting children into the collection process, rotation tips that keep curiosity alive, and review photo‑rich examples of loose parts elevating language, STEM inquiry, creativity, and community in educational programs. Participants can expect to leave with seasonal sourcing ideas, reflective prompts, and adaptable setup examples they can try as quick as tomorrow.

​​​​​​​Come ready to gather, imagine, and shape nature-enriched environments!
