The National Wildlife Federation (NWF) has partnered with a movie production company that developed the motion picture entitled “Where The Wild Things Are” to launch a national campaign called “Be Out There”.   This campaign is dedicated to connecting kids and their families with nature at home, at schools, and in their communities.  For more information about this campaign (including a parent/teacher guide, and a poster) [click here].http://www.nwf.org/BeOutThere/shapeimage_3_link_0
