Outdoor Adventures: Intentional Outdoor Play

Training Policies

The importance of play for a child’s healthy development is grounded in a strong body of research. In this session, we will dive into the research to gain a clearer understanding of how connecting indoor and outdoor play promotes cognitive, physical, social, and emotional development in children. From art, science, math, literacy, and more, we will learn how to effectively plan intentional outdoor learning activities to engage children in play to spark their curiosity and engage their senses.
