đŠđ° Kristen Bell shares her experience of âFree-Rangeâ Freedom!
Kristen Bell & Dax Shepard let their kids (11 & 9) roam Copenhagenâs Tivoli Gardens aloneâwhile they sipped coffee & played cards. Kristen calls it âheaven.â âđ
Why it matters:
â Kids practiced real-world independence
â Parents enjoyed guilt-free downtime
You donât need a passport (or celebrity status) to try it.
đ Our FREE Let Grow programs help families & schools build this kind of trust every day.
⨠The only thing that rewires parents is doing it. Let go once, see your kids thriveâand everyone comes back smiling. Link to the blog in our bio!

Playing outside is not neglect.
Walking home from the park is not neglect.
Giving kids age-appropriate independence is not neglect.
A new bill introduced in Congress, the Promoting Childhood Independence and Resilience Act, could help protect parents who give their kids the freedom to do normal childhood things.
At Let Grow, we believe kids need more real-world independence, and parents shouldnât be punished for giving it to them.
Itâs not neglect.
Itâs childhood.

In 1983, schools started trading recess for test scores. Forty years later, youth anxiety has surged and free play has nearly disappeared from childhood. Evolutionary psychologist Peter Gray has been studying this connection for decades and the data is hard to ignore. Learn more at the đ in bio. #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth
What if the missing piece in childhood isnât another activity, but more kids to run with?
Join Let Growâs upcoming webinar, Why Kids Need a Pack, Not Just a Playdate, for a powerful conversation about the kind of play kids are craving: unstructured, mixed-age, kid-led, real-world play.
The kind where they make the rules, solve the problems, handle the disagreements, and build the confidence that comes from figuring things out together.
Because kids donât just grow through play.
They grow through each other.

Not every summer memory comes from a big trip or expensive camp. Sometimes it starts with a child doing something on their own for the very first time. The Let Grow Summer Experience helps kids build confidence, responsibility, and real-world problem-solving skills all summer long.
