... pack a simple camping kit, travel a short distance to a wild, natural camp site and see what happens. You may
experience some resistance, you may arrive and wonder what on earth you are all going to do for 48 hours without
electricity, but something happens when there is ‘nothing to do’ - magic happes!
Your brain slows, your shoulders drop, children start
fiddling with sticks, watching clouds and poking around in the mud. You build a camp fire and start talking to each
other. Without a sofa to sink into or a TV to stare at, children are more inclined to run around, climb a tree, play
football or play hide-and seek a new friend. It’s wonderful for kids to have the chance to be wild and free, away from
the constraints of school, time and social pressure.
