Outdoor Play
Outdoor Play
Outdoor play refers to any physical, exploratory, imaginative, or social play that takes place in an outdoor environment. For young children in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), outdoor play is not just about "letting off steam" — it is a crucial part of their learning, development, and well-being.
The EYFS framework in the UK, for example, clearly states that children must have daily opportunities to play outdoors.
Loose Parts
Loose Parts
Loose Parts Play is a child-led approach to play and learning that involves using open-ended materials that can be moved, combined, redesigned, and manipulated in different ways. These materials have no fixed purpose, allowing children to use their creativity and imagination to explore, build, and experiment.

Small world play is a type of imaginative and open-ended play where young children use miniature figures, animals, vehicles, and other props to create and act out scenes, stories, or real-life experiences. It allows children to explore different concepts, express emotions, and develop social, cognitive, and language skills in a hands-on and engaging way.
Reading to young children is one of the most valuable activities parents, caregivers, and educators can engage in.
