46. Life at Camp - with Audrey Withycombe

<p>Audrey Withycombe is a wife, mother of two, and former teacher. Audrey is passionate about seeking adventures from mountain biking to exploring hot springs. She and her family have made it a whole lifestyle as they currently live full time at a summer camp in Minnesota. When Audrey isn’t out adventuring with her family, she is blogging and podcasting about being an outdoorsy family. I was so happy to be able to sit down and talk with Audrey about life at camp, and the joy of being outdoors!</p> <p><br></p> <p>You can find Audrey's blog and podcast at outdoorsyfamilies.com and follow her over on instagram @outdoorsy.families</p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p>Acoustic/Folk Instrumental by Hyde - Free Instrumentals <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqbnBBbThVaUtwblZXX3NaWXRnT3BHMFF4aWltQXxBQ3Jtc0tuYXZ1SXU4dV81TzFnb0FuVU9jemNkb2RNYjROajVBYWdIS0o4VktOVThrbEFrMzNpb21TclRDVUlhN1BOY1VjRVhQM19td1NuejU5QTFTVU1iREduY3hGdGdpa1hQeUh5UGR5ckVTdHZCU21NeXF5cw&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fdavidhydemusic" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://soundcloud.com/davidhydemusic</a>​Creative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported— CC BY 3.0 &nbsp;Free Download / Stream: &nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqbmwwT1VOTlNBZldqaFJMT1ctVVdaNENnNGJYQXxBQ3Jtc0trMjc3dnAyak5jOUpIN25kYTJzalZNNVZWWUhGelZUOUdfNm1nVmhkRFpCTjkta1Bxay1XdndrWm1pdUxCQ1JkdXBzYUp6b3lGVEFxdjIzNkxNTTQzdzZzeUF4SWljV1FSNWdZRkJJNGJ1N1VKeEhUQQ&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2Facoustic-folk-instrumental" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/acoustic-folk-instrume...</a>​Music promoted by Audio Library <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKdXVnaHfo8&amp;t=0s" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/YKdXVnaHfo8</a></p>

45. Recess Advocacy - with Summer Belloni

<p>Welcome to Happy Outdoor Families, the podcast that encourages and equips families to spend more time exploring and playing together outside. Today I'm excited to talk all about recess advocacy, and Summer Belloni is the perfect person for this conversation! As a credentialed teacher, she has experience teaching in both public and private schools. On the parenting side, when her own children entered school, Summer served on a district level student health advisory council where she began to really understand the importance of recess. She began to advocate locally for district policy, and went on to start Texans for Recess, an organization that advocates for recess policy on the state level. Continuing her passion for school and learning, summer is currently finishing coursework and assessments for her preliminary administrative credential and a master’s degree in education focusing on administrative leadership. Her current research focuses on teacher perception of recess, and Summer also serves on the board of the International Play Association, USA as their recess chair. Most importantly, she is raising two children who love to play outside as much as possible. I am excited for you to hear more of Summer’s story and her wisdom on recess advocacy.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Some resources mentioned in the show and places for further learning:</p> <p>The LIINK project: https://liinkproject.tcu.edu/</p> <p>IPA USA: https://ipausa.org/</p> <p>Texans for Recess group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1879894452038819</p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p>Acoustic/Folk Instrumental by Hyde - Free Instrumentals <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqbnBBbThVaUtwblZXX3NaWXRnT3BHMFF4aWltQXxBQ3Jtc0tuYXZ1SXU4dV81TzFnb0FuVU9jemNkb2RNYjROajVBYWdIS0o4VktOVThrbEFrMzNpb21TclRDVUlhN1BOY1VjRVhQM19td1NuejU5QTFTVU1iREduY3hGdGdpa1hQeUh5UGR5ckVTdHZCU21NeXF5cw&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fdavidhydemusic" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://soundcloud.com/davidhydemusic</a>​Creative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported— CC BY 3.0 &nbsp;Free Download / Stream: &nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqbmwwT1VOTlNBZldqaFJMT1ctVVdaNENnNGJYQXxBQ3Jtc0trMjc3dnAyak5jOUpIN25kYTJzalZNNVZWWUhGelZUOUdfNm1nVmhkRFpCTjkta1Bxay1XdndrWm1pdUxCQ1JkdXBzYUp6b3lGVEFxdjIzNkxNTTQzdzZzeUF4SWljV1FSNWdZRkJJNGJ1N1VKeEhUQQ&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2Facoustic-folk-instrumental" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/acoustic-folk-instrume...</a>​Music promoted by Audio Library <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKdXVnaHfo8&amp;t=0s" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/YKdXVnaHfo8</a></p>

44. Hidden Senses (Part 2) - The Proprioceptive Sense

<p>Welcome to Happy Outdoor Families, the podcast that encourages and equips families to spend more time exploring and playing together outside. I am your host, Emily Isenbarger, and I hope that as you listen in each week you will feel inspired and excited about reconnecting your kids, and yourselves, with the outdoors - whatever that looks like for you. Join with me as we dive into the beauty, the benefits, and the challenges of taking life outside. Thanks for listening!</p> <p><br></p> <p>This week we are talking about another "hidden" sense, our proprioceptive sense. Our proprioceptive sense allows us to know where our limbs and other body parts are, and to judge the force and speed of our movements. Listen in to hear more about how this sense is developed and how we can make sure kids aren't missing out on the sensory input that they need to keep it strong.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>In the episode, I reference Angela Hanscom's book, Balanced and Barefoot, which you can find here:&nbsp;</p> <p>https://bookshop.org/books/balanced-and-barefoot-how-unrestricted-outdoor-play-makes-for-strong-confident-and-capable-children/9781626253735</p> <p><br></p> <p>Here are a few follow up articles as well:</p> <p>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/B9780080450469019070</p> <p><a href="https://tinkergarten.com/blog/what-is-our-sixth-sense-and-how-does-it-affect-our-kids"><u>https://tinkergarten.com/blog/what-is-our-sixth-sense-and-how-does-it-affect-our-kids</u></a></p> <p><u>https://www.stack.com/a/the-real-reason-schools-are-banning-tag-and-why-it-should-be-a-wake-up-call-for-parents/</u></p> <p><br></p> <p>Acoustic/Folk Instrumental by Hyde - Free Instrumentals <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqbnBBbThVaUtwblZXX3NaWXRnT3BHMFF4aWltQXxBQ3Jtc0tuYXZ1SXU4dV81TzFnb0FuVU9jemNkb2RNYjROajVBYWdIS0o4VktOVThrbEFrMzNpb21TclRDVUlhN1BOY1VjRVhQM19td1NuejU5QTFTVU1iREduY3hGdGdpa1hQeUh5UGR5ckVTdHZCU21NeXF5cw&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fdavidhydemusic" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://soundcloud.com/davidhydemusic</a>​Creative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported— CC BY 3.0 &nbsp;Free Download / Stream: &nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqbmwwT1VOTlNBZldqaFJMT1ctVVdaNENnNGJYQXxBQ3Jtc0trMjc3dnAyak5jOUpIN25kYTJzalZNNVZWWUhGelZUOUdfNm1nVmhkRFpCTjkta1Bxay1XdndrWm1pdUxCQ1JkdXBzYUp6b3lGVEFxdjIzNkxNTTQzdzZzeUF4SWljV1FSNWdZRkJJNGJ1N1VKeEhUQQ&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2Facoustic-folk-instrumental" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/acoustic-folk-instrume...</a>​Music promoted by Audio Library <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKdXVnaHfo8&amp;t=0s" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/YKdXVnaHfo8</a></p>
