Let’s rewild your child
As a mom of little ones, we know that you understand the importance of getting outside and want to spend more quality time outside with your kids having adventures, and making memories together.
But, you’re busy and exhausted, your kids are over-scheduled and would rather play inside, and outdoor activities together are either too boring or require too much time and planning.
Therefore, we’ve done all the work for you and planned an entire week of themed adventures that will make you fall in love with the outdoors again, create lasting memories with your kids, and kick-start this season off in a fun way. Getting your child off screens and outside into nature is easier than you think and quality family time outside can fit into even the busiest of schedules with a little bit of planning and intentionality.
The Wildhood Challenge is your opportunity to rewild your child! Run Wild My Child and Thimble & Twig have teamed up to help parents of young kids (ages 1-10) understand the importance of getting kids outside and the encouragement needed to make outdoor time a reality and a priority.
Self-guided 7-day challenge
Our 7-day Wildhood Challenge will help show busy parents just how easy, fun and beneficial it can be spending time outside with your kids. Participants will choose (at least) one outdoor activity to do together with their child for each of the 7 themed days. Our 50+ page guide will give you a wealth of outdoor play ideas that foster curiosity, exploration, and cooperation and help build your kids imaginations in the process!
We’ll give you all the info and inspiration you need to plan and execute fun outdoor adventures, big and small, for an entire week. We’ll show you how (and why it’s important) to get your kids outside (even if they’d rather stay in)! At the end of the challenge, you’ll be prepared with countless ideas for creating intentional time outside with your kids and new ideas of how to incorporate nature and nature activities into your busy family days.
This is your chance to let your kids get messy and dig in dirt, an opportunity to reconnect with nature, a way for you to feel supported as your family makes outdoor time a priority. Our kids need more than just childhood…they deserve a “wildhood” filled with exploration, adventure and a parent to show them the way.

The Wildhood Challenge includes 7 days of themed activities and adventures to do at your own pace any time you want. We provide tons of activity options for each day (from beginner to challenging) and all the info you need to do the activity.
