There were 260 official questionnaires distributed. After taking away the invalid questionnaires, there were 193 valid questionnaires used. Pre-tests and post-tests of "Nature Relatedness Scale", "New Ecological Paradigm Scale for Children" and "The PedsQL TM4.0 Generic Core Scales" were given to the experimental group. The collected data was analyzed through statistical methods including descriptive statistics, the paired-samples t-test, and multi factor line regression method, was further illustrated by qualitative data.

In " Quality of Life ", the natural group "ecological self"、"environmental awareness and sensitivity" and "knowledge of environmental concepts" positively affect the Quality of Life.
Finally, some suggestions have been offered accordingly to schools, educational administration, environmental educators, parents and future research direction, as well as natural activities teaching lesson plan development.
