Boots’ campaign for summer follows the journey of a brilliantly cast seven-year-old girl wondering in the sights, smells and excitement of the summer holidays.

‘Summer like you’re Seven’ is the latest campaign from the retailer’s retained agency Ogilvy UK. Set to the Jungle Book’s ‘Bare Necessities’ the hero film follows seven-year-old Livvie from the time she leaves school until she falls asleep at the dinner table on holiday, focusing on Boots products such as insect spray, plasters, face masks and even leg wax strips in between.

The creative was developed from the insight that children experience summer with an enthusiasm and curiosity that is lost somewhat in adults, and that reminiscing about our childhood view of summer can lift our mood.
