In particular, experiences in nature during childhood have important effects on childrenʼs humanity (Carson, 1956). However, disabled children face severe limitations in terms of opportunities to experience nature. In Japan, recently, according to the “Act on the Utilization of Funds Related to Dormant Deposits to Promote Public Interest Activities in the Private Sector,” projects for eliminating the experience gap have been carried using dormant deposits. Ocean Family (an authorized non-profit organization) has been selected as one of the groups to execute this project, and it has implemented a three-year plan for a summertime seaside experience program for children with developmental disorders and mental disabilities. We researched the experiential learning of diverse children using a questionnaire and observational methods during the Ocean Family program for a period of three years. The aim of this study was to investigate the current situation and issues pertaining to the nature experiences of children with developmental disorders and mental disabilities based on a qualitative analysis of a questionnaire administered to volunteers and child day care center staff who support children during marine activities after the first year of the project. The results show that volunteers’ and staffʼs main hope and expectations for the seaside experience program included “enjoyment” and “sense of wonder.” Volunteers and staff understood that the children enjoyed the program very much. In addition, adults (volunteers and staff) enjoyed and learned very important things about children, from children, and through children even though the experiences were few in number and the activities were completed within 1.5 hours.}, pages = {59--74}, title = {発達障害・知的障害を持つ子どもたちの自然体験活動の意義と現状}, year = {2022}, yomi = {ワタナベ, カナエ} }
