Who We Are
Our Story
Kids Gone Wild is a family run business, started by Lauren and Rob. We are based in Livingston and travel throughout Central Scotland delivering outdoor learning and nature play sessions to schools, groups and families.
Our goal is to normalise outdoor and “risky” play and help children to reconnect and respect nature through outdoor learning.
We tackle current social issues amongst young people including reducing screen time, helping families to become more physically active together and improving mental health.
We truly believe that this is a grass roots solution, by guiding children through play outdoors, they will connect, respect and protect our environment.
Although we deliver sessions throughout all of central Scotland, we focus primarily on urban areas, where we believe our support is needed the most.
