These photos show a great use of the garden for our activities, showing that we can enjoy doing things outdoors, as much as indoors. We do enjoy our garden times using tyres and old left over pieces of wood to make balancing beams, this week our babies enjoyed using it as a bench to sit on with their friends and look at books with an adult. The endless opportunities we have through tyres, wood and pallets.
We go out in all weathers, with all age groups at Toddletown, there are so many benefits to outdoor play:
- Sensory experiences
- Developing gross and fine motor skills
- Being outdoors and in the fresh air can aid sleeping in children
- Gaining an appreciation and knowledge of animals and nature; what better way to learn about grass, trees, birds then seeing the real thing
- Learning about different weathers
- Running off energy before a quiet time
- Exploring skills that we may not be able to do indoors e.g. running, jumping, hopping, throwing
