Studies show that exposure to nature has a significant positive impact on a child’s cognitive, social, physiological, and emotional development.

Mushrooms are a type of fungus that can be found on forest floors, but also on backyard lawns! We think it is especially important to introduce children to the study of mushrooms since most children might have misconceptions believing that mushrooms are plants, and that fungus means mushroom.
