Running wild
Wednesday, April 15, 2009
I've been ploughing my way through Richard Louv's book Last child in the woods, reading about the importance of kids running wild through nature. Climbing trees, jumping across small brooks and going out fishing. It's very well documented, with lots and lots of pages and I'm finding it hard going, a bit like a long run.
But when I saw this I sighed with relief. My kids are doing the Last child in the woods-thing!

ReplyDeleteThis is a great picture - just what children were meant to do ! I've never heard of the book before !
ReplyDeleteMine even get ladders in order to climb trees. They roll in mud puddles like little sows, it's great.
ReplyDeleteGREAT photo. I love that. I always push my kids to be out running wild and playing in the rain and the mud. Enough with TV and video games already!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great shot! Boys are so much fun!
ReplyDeleteLove this! We just moved from the city to the country... Well as country as it gets in Orange County! We have lots of mountain trails though so I can't wait for my little ones to get older so we can explore!
ReplyDeletewhat kind of threes are those?
ReplyDeleteHow fun! At least they'll get some of their energy out outside versus mine running wild indoors!
ReplyDeleteLooks so much fun!
