Wild Curiosity: How to Unleash Creativity and Encourage Lifelong Wondering

by Erik Shonstrom

Wild Curiosity brings together cutting-edge neuroscience and psychology research with simple, effective advice for parents and teachers on how to ignite the fire of curiosity in children. The author offers a new way to think about parenting and teaching--one that values autonomy, creativity, and celebrates the spontaneous and unexpected joys of learning. Following the groundbreaking work of researchers like Peter Gray and thought-leaders like Richard Louv, the book offers justification for the de-institutionalization of learning and a roadmap for how to create engaging, inspiring, and exciting experiences to nurture curiosity for children of all ages.--Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods, The Nature Principle, and Vitamin N "The Manchester Journal"
