"As kindergarten around the world becomes more and more academic, this powerful documentary film explores the development of social and cognitive skills through outdoor play and the magic of children's creativity in nature."
"Every parent and teacher should see this film." Dr. Marcy Guddemi, Executive Director of the Gesell Institute of Child Development, CT
"...the movie is a provocative jumping-off point for discussion precisely because the schooling it documents seems inconceivable to American parents and educators." Emily Bazelon, Slate Magazine
