Andy Simpson，chairman of the Wild Network，said，“The tragic truth is that kids have lost touch with nature and the outdoors in just one generation.”

　　“Children seldom get in touch with nature，so time spent outdoors is down.Activity levels are declining(下降) and the ability to identify common species has been lost.”

　　Suggestions of how to get more time in nature include collecting conkers，camping or snail racing，and observing autumn colour on trees.

　　This is not the first time that the message of less screen，more play has been brought up.Children in the 1980s were
