WATCH CASE STUDY

"74% of children spent less than 60
minutes playing outside each day.
UN guidelines for prisoners require
‘at least one hour of suitable exercise
in the open air daily’."
The Guardian

Around The Block is a collection of games kids
played in the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s. And even earlier
than that. The project started in Eastern Europe and is
now going global. The book hits a nerve at a
worldwide level and could be the first step in
addressing a global phenomenon.

This will, sooner or later, be in every home.
Come join the ride.

The book is a proud finalist in the Design section of Cannes Lions
2015. The event is the world’s most important festival celebrating
creative communications and the positive social impact of each
project.
