Stephanie Rivera
Ecosource Garden Play Educator
Mississauga, Ontario, Canada
I am a bilingual early learning educator who believes in children’s right to play! I facilitate nature-based activities for children 0-12 years of age in community gardens across the City of Mississauga. During program, children engage in hands-on, inquiry-based play, while learning about gardening concepts. I am passionate about connecting children to the natural world, but am also dedicated to mobilizing a movement that will support children in regularly and meaningfully interacting with nature.
