Angela Hanscom has the remedy for our kids' stressful, over-scheduled world

In which Dan and special guest co-host Kim Dzwonkowski talk with  Angela Hanscom about the importance of getting kids outside, away from overly structured activities and hovering adults. Angela is the best-selling author of Balanced and Barefoot: How Unrestricted Outdoor Play Makes for Strong, Confident, and Capable Children and the founder of Timbernook. Dan, Kim, and Angela talk about how our overly scheduled, overly supervised world is wrecking havoc on children's mental, emotional, and physical development, and why getting kids outside is the key to turning it around. As always, I welcome comments and questions on Twitter @BigIdeaEd
