The Sound of Footsteps in the Garden: Why Spending Time in the Natural World Is Essential for Your Family
Katherine LeaƱo
Roots, wonder, and attentiveness: the case for taking your family outside.
Recorded live at Magna Conversatio 2026, CHECH's annual conference at the University of St. Thomas. Katherine LeaƱo makes a warm and practical case for time in the natural world as an essential part of family life and home education. She explores how regular time outdoors grounds children in a sense of place, helps them develop roots and identity, and cultivates the habits of wonder and attentiveness that carry into every subject they study, and into prayer. Whether your family already spends its days outside or is just beginning, this talk will encourage you to open the door.
