"At its root, nature is empowering.  We must tap into this abundant source
of energy. The renewing power of the natural world sustains us, our children
and our fellow Canadians.  Nature Play Day reminds us that it's OK to be
outside.  It's OK to play and get grass-stained knees, dirty palms and a
sticky shirt.  It's more than OK...  It's necessary!!"
