From the films website: "Mother Nature's Child explores nature’s powerful role in children's health and development
through the experience of toddlers, children in middle childhood and
adolescents. The film marks a moment in time when a living generation can still
recall childhoods of free play outdoors; this will not be true for most
children growing up today. The effects of “nature deficit disorder” are now being noted across the country in epidemics of child obesity, attention disorders, and depression." Read more here.
