We can also understand how important nature is to early childhood education through this sentence, so what are the specific functions?
First, the psychological effects of nature on children.
In the natural environment, we always feel that there will be a calming effect, which is actually the same for children. In this environment, the child's nervous system feels very calm and the child's heart is in a state of peace. Therefore, for children, nature is their best companion. Children can not only breathe fresh air, but also get exercise when they are active in nature. That's why people always talk about returning to nature. On weekends, the whole family can go to nature to enjoy the scenery, and at the same time, they can release the stress of body and mind.
Second, the role of nature in children's intellectual development
Children can gain a lot of knowledge through nature, and this knowledge is more intuitive, and he will be very impressed by what children come into contact with. For example, if he goes to play in the fields during the holidays, he will be very curious about the animals his children meet while playing. Through the child's curiosity, he will deal with animals and observe them. As long as a curious child's desire to explore appears, the child's thirst for knowledge actually sows a seed in the child's heart, so that the child can discover the society and nature with a lot of questions. It also plays a very key role in children's future study and education.

Everyone is not an independent individual. In nature, its ecological chain and every ecological chain are essential, which will also let children understand the relationship between people and things. At the same time, through the observation of nature, it is found that each animal should better complete its task through cooperation, and children also understand the spirit of mutual cooperation. Man cannot be divorced from nature. If they are divorced from nature, they will feel exhausted. Especially for children, education is also inseparable from the natural environment. If separated, the educational content will make children feel boring.
