Community Building Through Nature
Bring It Outside (BiO): Helping Families Grow Outside, Together
The Bring It Outside (BiO) program provides simple, low-barrier, and positive opportunities for families to engage in early childhood development through nature. Designed for caregivers with children ages 0-5, BiO helps families:
✔ Build confidence in getting outside with little ones.
✔ Understand and practice the developmental benefits of outdoor play.
✔ Foster environmental awareness and stewardship in early childhood.
✔ Strengthen bonds between caregivers and children through shared nature experiences.
Through engaging curriculum modules, workshops, and community outings, BiO provides connected, accessible programming for families of all backgrounds and abilities.
A Nationally Recognized Program with Local Impact
The Bring It Outside program is a national initiative that has actively worked with rural communities and families, ensuring that outdoor opportunities are accessible to those who need them most.
✔ Served 5,000+ families across 10 communities.
✔ Offered in multiple languages to better serve diverse populations.
✔ Customizable to fit specific community needs.
We work with:
- Community organizations looking to support early childhood development.
- Land managers and park agencies to create welcoming, family-friendly spaces.
- Early childhood support services to integrate BiO into family programming.
Together, we’re bringing families outside in ways that work for them—and ensuring that more children grow up with nature.
