Outdoor education was a refuge for Los Angeles families during the pandemic.
The fires have burned schools, public and private schools, nature-based preschools, homeschool groups, summer camps and more.
It's not clear when the air quality in Griffith Park will be good enough to resume outdoor programs.
It can be healing to connect with the land after a disaster like the fires, Lila Higgins says.
Outdoor spaces can help children learn how to develop relationships with animals, understand orientation through space by following trails and map-reading.
Higgins says time in nature lowers heart rates, lowers blood pressure and helps children with attention-deficit disorder feel more calm and relaxed.

Alessio Zaccone: Amorphous state of matter is the most abundant form of visible matter in the universe.
An amorphous material is a solid whose molecules and atoms form disordered structures.
Topological defects are mathematically described as points of singularity within an ordered pattern.
They practically control the physical properties of crystals, such as their plastic yielding and melting.
Research interests range from statistical physics of disordered systems (random packings, jamming, glasses and the glass transition, colloids, nonequilibrium thermodynamics) to solid-state physics and superconductivity.
Research interests include the theory of thermally-activated reaction rate processes in shear flows.
