From biomechanist and bestselling author Katy Bowman comes her
eagerly anticipated guide to getting kids—from babies to
preteens—and their families moving more, together, outside. Our
kids are moving less than any other generation in human history;
indoor time and screen time have skyrocketed. As adults and kids
turn more to "convenient," tech-based solutions, 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 traded
convenience for the movement-rich environment that our physical,
mental, and environmental health depends on. Parents don’t know
what to do! But there’s good news: While the problem feels
massive, the solution is simple…and fun! Grow Wild not only
breaks down the ‘big ideas’ behind movement as a nutrient, it
serves as 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 And
much more! Bowman, a leader in the Movement movement, has written
Grow Wild to show where movement used to fit into the activities of
daily life and more importantly, how it can again. The perfect
companion to Bowman’s bestseller Move Your DNA, Grow Wild
provides practical, everyday, nature-rich ideas on how to let kids
move their DNA while doing things they’ll love. The book
features: 100+ full-color 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! Grow Wild is necessary
reading for a wide range of readers—anyone who spends time with
children. Humans live in many places and there are countless
movement opportunities wherever you live, you just need to know how
to spot them. Children and their families can thrive by learning to
move more inside, adventure more outside, and grow wild in any
environment.
