Ep 104: How Spending 1,000 Hours Outside Benefits Kids + Protects Childhood with Ginny Yurich
You guys have probably seen or heard us talk about 1,000 hours outside on our social media. For the last 3 years we have been trying to complete our 1,000 hours outside as a family. We are SO close to finally hitting our goal this year – which is super exciting! 🥳
We asked Jenny Yurich (the mind behind 1,000 Hours Outside) to join us for this conversion to talk about the importance of being outside for our kids, our family, and for nature. Our kids get one childhood and how we fill the days are valuable … for them AND for the family unit.
