“A child won’t grow up caring about nature, wanting to protect and preserve it, if it has never learned to love it.”
A podcast for parents/teachers of eco kids.
Introducing you to books, films, events and methods to help you rewild your child (or just start them off wild) . . . So we can save the planet!
Featuring interviews with authors, photographers, scientists, conservationists and educationists.
(Part of the POWEs group and a proud member of the Twig.fm extraordinary women podcasters for the planet channel)

Wilderkids is currently on a break. There’s only one of us behind the scenes and whilst I love doing the podcast, it’s a lot of work and I need to take a break in order to get another POWEs book finished and all the artwork done for an exciting collaboration I’m doing with wildlife photographer friend. Thank you for stopping by – we’ll be back soon.
