A line from Whitman "There was a child went forth every day" starts this film: a visit to a farm that's a summer camp and progressive school for exploration and discovery. The children as young as two or three have room and time to question wonder and learn. We build a wading pool use tools climb and swing bath a dog - and learn to live together. There are spats and little adult interference. A tree house sparks children's imagination. They visit a neighboring farm play with the animals and ride on a tractor that's plowing. They eat and nap. There's story time easels for art and a lollipop. It's the perfect place for city children to be safe from bombardment says the narrator.
