Overview
A short picture book to invite and encourage young children to remove their shoes and socks and explore the earth and natural materials with their bare feet. Yoga poses and affirmations are added to help children learn to regulate their bodies and practice positive self talk. Encouraging children to connect to and enjoy the earth may help them to develop positive ecological identities, ones where they feel they are a part of and equal to the natural world rather than superior to it. This in turn may help develop future caretakers of our planet.Rhyme and repetition is used to support literacy development. The child in the story uses adjectives to describe how each surface feels then invites other children to express how they think the surface feels.
