Grow Wild
As adults and kids alike turn more frequently to “convenient” and tech-based solutions, many tasks that once required head-to-toe use of our muscles and bones can be done with a click and a swipe. Without realizing it, we’ve gotten rid of the movement-rich environment our physical, mental, and environmental health depend on…but not our need for it.
Parents don’t know what to do!
Grow Wild not only breaks down the ‘big ideas’ behind movement as a nutrient, it serves as a field guide―how to spot all the movement opportunities we’re currently missing.
Learn to ‘stack your life’ for richer experiences that don’t take more time:
- Set up your home to promote more movement, naturally
- Dress for (movement) success
- Add ‘snacktivities’ to your meals
- Plan dynamic celebrations
- Create a dynamic homework space
- Bring nature into your home and play
The book features:
- 100+ full-colour photographs of kids and families moving
- Success stories from parents, grandparents, teachers
- ‘Study sessions’ that make movement research more accessible to laypersons
- Written to all that work with children―parents, teachers, relatives, health professionals, and more
- A book to be referenced again and again as kids grow up!
