Curious About Nature Podcast

Let’s rewild childhood.

Welcome to Curious About Nature. I’m Rachel — and this is where I sit down with people who know and love the natural world, to talk about how we help children connect with it. Guests have covered everything from marine life and foraging to sensory processing differences, nature photography, and getting outdoors away from screens. It’s for anyone — parents, carers, teachers, home educators — who wants simple, real ways to bring nature into a child’s life.

The podcast’s resting for now, but every episode’s still here to enjoy.
