Nature Play WA Nature Play WA are proud to present a screening of Project Wild Thing right here in Perth at the University of WA. Project Wild Thing is a movement to get more kids (and their families) outside and reconnecting with nature. The film is an ambitious, feature-length documentary that takes a funny and revealing look at a complex issue – the increasingly disparate connection between children and nature.

Find out more about the movie, watch the official trailer and book, HERE.
