About Until the Streetlights Come On : How a Return to Play Brightens Our Present and Prepares Kids for an Uncertain Future
It may shock you to learn that we spend an average of four to seven minutes outside each day—while we spend four to seven hours using devices with screens. Needless to say, our physical, mental, emotional, and relational health has suffered. But there is a ready solution: get outside! A homeschooling mother of five and 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. With a mom's heart and an educator's eye, Ginny shows you: 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 to your child than screentime; and much more. 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.
