Children today spend most of their time indoors, and are less creative than ever before. According to a follow up study conducted on childhood creativity in 2017, children have become “less emotionally expressive, less energetic, less talkative and verbally expressive, less humorous, less imaginative, less unconventional, less lively and passionate, less perceptive, less apt to connect seemingly irrelevant things…” Unstructured time outdoors is the cure to the creativity crisis in children. Who better to resurrect this creative energy than the king of creativity himself , Dr. Seuss? Who better to provide a spot to spend time outdoors than ENO?

Track Pack
Today’s parents are more conscious of their child’s location than ever before. Long gone are the days of TV interruptions asking if you know where your child is; now children have phones specifically for location services. These days children are monitored, tracked and bubble-wrapped. To give kids more freedom, to get them outside, and to hand parents their peace of mind, we will be offering a Track Pack add-on. These track packs will include live location services, viewed through the ENO app.
