The Whole-Child, Whole-Family, Nature-Rich Guide to Moving More

Human movement is at an all-time low, and our children are currently facing both a movement and a nature deficiency, with physical, mental, and environmental consequences. The good news is, while the problem feels massive, the solution is quite simple…and fun! “Stack your life” for richer experiences that don’t take more time by learning how to:

  • Change your home’s “movement rules”
  • Dress for (movement) success
  • Add snacktivities to your meals
  • Create a dynamic homework space
  • Bring nature into your home and play
  • Plan a dynamic celebration
  • And much more!There are countless movement opportunities wherever you live; learn how to spot them! Grow Wild includes full- color photographs, stories from families in a wide array of environments (urban, rural, suburban, and around the world!), and in-depth “study sessions” for those interested in the research behind the book.Children and their families can thrive by learning to move more inside, adventure more outside, and grow wild in any environment. This is an essential guide to kids’ movement for everyone who cares for kids: parents, relatives, teachers, health professionals, and more.

Katy Bowman

Bestselling author, speaker, and a leader of the Movement movement, biomechanist Katy Bowman is changing the way we move and think about our need for movement. Her eight books, including the groundbreaking Move Your DNA, have been translated into more than a dozen languages worldwide. Bowman teaches movement globally and speaks about sedentarism and movement ecology to academic and scientific audiences such as the Ancestral Health Summit and the Institute for Human and Machine Cognition. Her work is regularly featured in diverse media such as the Today Show, CBC Radio One, the Seattle Times, the Joe Rogan Experience, and Good Housekeeping. One of Maria Shriver's "Architects of Change" and an America Walks "Woman of the Walking Movement," Bowman consults on educational and living space design to encourage movement-rich habitats. She has worked with companies like Patagonia as well as non-profits to ensure diverse socioeconomic groups benefit from her "move more, move more of you, and move better" message. Her movement education company, Nutritious Movement, is based in Washington State, where she lives with her family.
