'Thrive Winter Outdoor Nature Activities for Children and Families' is the third book in a series of four books by Irish Early Years Educator and Author, Gillian Powell. Gillian, who has over 30 years experience in the sector, used time spent with children as the inspiration for the books.

It includes over 60 pages of outdoor nature ideas and activities for math, science, literature, language, well-being and mindfulness. It also includes a number of activities for Christmas.
