The natural environment also contributes greatly to the development of the child


London, July 29, 2021, Thursday

Children and young people who cultivate proximity to forests and trees have a more emotional and emotional connection. The study was conducted by a team of scientists from University College London and Imperial College. The researchers selected nine children and adolescents between the ages of 9 and 12 from 21 London schools for the study. This study is very important to bring children closer to the forest, nature and environment. For the study, the group was divided into two groups, Green Space and Blue Space.


Green space included forests and meadows and parks. The researchers used the satellite to record the daily behavior of children in different environments between their home and school. Based on the two-year behavior note, it was found that the brain development of the children around the forest area was good. Therefore, it is also important to take care of maintaining the natural environment in the construction of dwellings in cities. The natural environment also contributes greatly to the development of the child.

The greenery and the forest environment work like a relaxing therapy. It also boosts the immune system. Changes in heart rate and saliva reduce cortisol. Emotional problems were more prevalent in children in artificial environments away from nature. However, factors such as age, environment, parental occupation and schooling were also found to affect the children and adolescents. The researchers also collected information from children in the form of questionnaires as part of a study of children's behavior from 2012 to 2016. Researchers are trying to figure out why good feelings are experienced in forests and green areas.
