A short clip from the award-winning Arctic Outdoor Preschool. Why not give a 5 year old a sharp knife? Or a box of matches? Or let them climb a tree? The benefits of outdoor preschool education, even in the Arctic north of Norway. (Winner of Best Youth Programme at the 2009 Northern Character Film Festival, Murmansk). Full film available on this channel.

Humans writing algorithms produce those slightly creepy 'If you like this, you might like this' recommendations. I, Robert Stern, of Litmus Film, can assure you that all the following are hand-crafted by artisan so local, they might as well be me:

IF you like this taster, you might like to see the full 21-minute film, also in this Learning for Real playlist.

IF you like that, you might like to see the other two films in the Learning for Real Playlist on the Litmus Films channel.

IF you like those, you might like to check out other playlists on this channel.

IF you like those, but notice that all the videos on the Litmus Films channel (eclectic, high-quality, surprising, interesting, fresh-n-wry, multilingual, funny, relevant, thought-provoking, topical, of archival merit etc. though some of them they might be) are all quite old, you might like to check out See Through News, where nearly all of Robert/Litmus' new video material is being uploaded.

Why on earth, the more YouTube-aware of you will be asking, after so many years painstakingly accumulating the 1,000 subscribers required to start monetizing this channel, did Robert immediately start uploading all new videos onto a new one?

IF you're curious, and let's face it if you're still reading this, you are, go to See Through News.
