Des Peres Meets the Challenge!
The City of Des Peres has met the Missouri Children in Nature Challenge! "The Children in Nature Challenge recognizes communities and families who create opportunities for their children to get outside and discover nature firsthand. Why is this important? Children benefit physically, mentally, and even spiritually by reconnecting with nature; it helps them feel happier and healthier. Educating children about nature also helps foster a lifelong appreciation of the plants and animals that live around us, and can make children better future stewards of our precious natural resources."
