It's not possible everywhere; it's not for every child or family. But free/ outdoor/ exploring time is something that is missing in a lot of children's lives. Personally I think that keeping children in a classroom for about six hours a day goes against human nature. This below is just one of the places that is doing something different and it is easier to do when schools are administered on a local level. http://www.slate.com/articles/double_x/doublex/2013/12/forest_kindergarten_watch_kids_in_switzerland_go_to_school_outside_in_school.html Something along those lines would probably make for more responsible outdoor ( or all around) behavior later in life. Sweden, England and New Zealand are also seeing more push for this type of education.
