Play Scotland is delighted to support the launch of the full-length documentary “Project Wild Thing”, that takes a funny and revealing look at a complex issue of how to get more children outside and reconnecting with nature.
Filmmaker David Bond is a worried man. His kids’ waking hours are dominated by a cacophony of marketing, and a screen dependence threatening to turn them into glassy-eyed zombies. Like city kids everywhere, they spend way too much time indoors – not like it was back in his day. He decides it’s time to get back to nature – literally.
“This film will change your life” Patrick Barkham, The Guardian
And Project Wild Thing is much more than a film, this is a growing movement of organisations and individuals, now known as The Wild Network – who care deeply about the need for nature connected, free-range, roaming and outdoor playing kids in the 21st century.
Project Wild Thing and The Wild Network is a people powered movement, it’s success will be down to the actions and the energy of this growing community.
If you want nature, wildness and free-range living for kids and adults to exist alongside an increasingly industrialised and technological society then join us and get involved in making that happen.
