FROM THE FOUNDER OF THE GLOBAL 1000 HOURS OUTSIDE MOVEMENT
The average American now spends just four to seven minutes outside each day, while we spend four to seven
hours using devices with screens. Our physical, mental, emotional, and relational health has suffered--and so has that of our children.
But there is a solution: get outside!
A homeschooling mother of five and the founder of the global 1000 Hours Outside movement, Ginny Yurich explains how we got to this point--and how to get back to a healthier, more engaging relationship with the world outside.

● the importance of unstructured play for children
● what boredom actually contributes to our brains
● the value of sunlight and social play
● the role of play in lifelong learning
● how to make time outside more attractive than screen time
If you want your kids to grow up curious, resilient, and with a sense of adventure and community, it''s essential to make outside play a priority This book shows you why
and how.
