Getting Kids Outdoors

Mission Critical: We Must Get Kids Outdoors More

• Kaiser Family Foundation study: Children spend almost 8 hours a day in front of a screen.

• Time spent outside for many kids: less than 1 hour/day.

If this next generation doesn’t grow up to

become advocates for wilderness, who will be?
