How Natural Space Can Support Children's Development—A Systematic Literature Review Based on Foreign Studies
Using a systematic literature review method,the article has analysed relevant research and found that there is a di-versified trend in the research themes of natural space supporting children's development,including four aspects of children's ed-ucation,children's health,nature perception and childhood life,but there is relatively a lack of exploratory research on different cultural backgrounds,economic status,population mobility and other factors that may affect children's relationship with natural space.The research subjects ranged from new-born babies of 0 years old to the teenagers of 18 years old,with a majority in 12-year-old children and with fewer longitudinal studies,this study focused on qualitative and interdisciplinary integration of analyti-cal tools and techniques based on condition-specific and coded standardized scales.Based on this,it is important to consider the complexity of the ways in which children are connected with nature and to provide safe and diversified natural space for different groups of children,to rationally formulate relevant policies and urban planning to establish nature-friendly eco-communities that integrate children's formal and informal learning,and to integrate educational resources to create an integrated school-family nat-ural education that can promote sustainable development in the future.
