Being outside is THE best. Children use all of our senses when we’re outside. They see, hear, smell, touch and sometimes taste. Being outdoors builds their confidence. In a less structured environment children have an opportunity to control their movement and refine their gross motor skills. Being outdoors promotes exercise, children need to move! It teaches us responsibility and promotes imagination. These are just a few of the benefits of having an outdoor class. “When children come in contact with Nature they reveal their Strength”.
