Description

This is the first in our 1000 Hours Outside Community series that highlights families just like yours from around the globe whose lives have been changed from their 1000 Hours Outside journey.  Amber Kuipers joins us from Ontario Canada to talk about grief literacy, an especially important topic during the holidays. She also shares her path to becoming a children’s book author (twice!), how she has overcome getting outside in the cold Canadian winters, the new children’s book she is writing with her son about their local outdoor adventures, how her family built a kick sled, and more! You can find Amber at: www.amberkuipers.com and you can find her cards at www.chasinghope.squarespace.com

Childhood is finite at just shy of 9.5 million minutes. We only get one shot at it. One of the biggest decisions we make is how we will use that time. Research has confirmed time and time again that what children are naturally and unabashedly drawn to, unrestricted outside play, contributes extensively to every area of childhood development. The importance here cannot be understated. Every year we aim to match nature time with the average amount of American kid screen time (which is currently 1200 hours per year). Have a goal. Track your time outside. Take back childhood. Inspire others.
