{{Filmjr |title=Child Went Forth, A |embid=0033_Child_Went_Forth_A_09_14_22_00 |embsv=archiveorg |desc=A simple, poetic exposition of a child's day at a modern summer camp. The six- to twelve-year-old children have been candidly photographed at work and play as they are encouraged to express their creative instincts and solve their problems independently. Deals with children from two to seven, showing them in activities designed to cultivate self-reliance and independence. In close contact with nature in conditions as primitive as is consistent with safety, the children learn how to live with one another, learn self-discipline, learn how to build things and to develop their creative instinct. The commentary relates the activities of the camp to general progressive education techniques and emphasizes the potential importance of such institutions in solving the problem of caring for the children of women employed in defense industries and in emergency evacuation of city children. |forma=16mm |year=1942 |up=|next=|prev=|step= |lang=English |pbrs=Ferno (John) and Losey (Joseph) |heldby=PA |len=19:24 |link= |bw= |ani= |ewid= }}
