5 SLEEPS TO GO!
WHY YOU SHOULD PLAY WITH US THESE HOLIDAYS
* REASON 5 # WE LEARN NEW SKILLS *
Unstructured Play in Nature is the best way for children to develop their physical skills, as it provides them with a variety of opportunities to move their bodies and engage in physical activity.
By engaging in outdoor play regularly, children can build their strength, endurance, balance, coordination, and overall physical well-being.
- Balance and coordination: Nature offers many different surfaces and terrain, such as rocks, logs, and hills, which can challenge children's balance and coordination as they navigate their way through these obstacles.
- Strength and endurance: Climbing trees, hiking through trails, and other outdoor activities can help children build their strength and endurance, which can improve their overall fitness and well-being.
- Gross motor skills: Running, jumping, throwing, and other physical activities that are common in outdoor play can help children develop their gross motor skills, which are essential for movement and physical activity.
- Fine motor skills: Even simple activities like picking up stones, twigs, and leaves can help develop children's fine motor skills, as they use their fingers and hands to manipulate objects and explore their environment.
