Outdoor education was a refuge for Los Angeles families during the pandemic.

"The community has been devastated by the fire," says Natural History Museum's Miguel Ordenana .

"It's been a challenge to carefully share that news with my children and help them work through their emotions," he says.

The fires have burned school buildings, too, including Odyssey Charter School in Altadena .

Outdoor spaces also can help children learn how to develop relationships with animals, understand orientation through space by following trails and map-reading.

"For children's cognitive development, time in nature and time spent connecting with nature is so important," Higgins said.

"This is the reality of modern Southern California ," says author of "Wild L.A." .
