  • 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.

    Sarah Mackenzie is here!!! Sarah Mackenzie is here!!! Sarah's Mackenzie's book, The Read-Aloud family transformed our family and I was so honored to get a chance to talk with her about it. In this episode we are talking about the simple power of the read-aloud and so much more! Sarah explains why reading aloud remains crucial even as children grow and become independent readers. She explains the unique benefits that reading aloud offers, such as enhanced language absorption and the nurturing of sophisticated linguistic patterns that are not often used in daily speech. She shares personal anecdotes demonstrating how these shared reading experiences can fortify family bonds, increase empathy, and encourage more profound discussions among family members. Additionally, Sarah provides practical tips for integrating reading into busy family life, embracing imperfection, and using books to foster a lifelong love of reading and learning.
