The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast

By: Ginny Yurich
  • Summary

  • 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.

Best Podcast For Raising Kids

This podcast is the only one I prioritize to keep up on. The topics range enough to help in all areas of raising children, but the concept runs deep, and the roots are there for all topics, that being outside helps! I'm in awe of what I learn and regularly hear my friends learn. This podcast is a topic of discussion regularly with my friends, and it just keeps spreading as we pass it along as a suggestion to others. I cannot recommend this enough!
