Description

Now in its third edition, Outdoor Learning in the Early Years is a comprehensive guide to creating effective outdoor environments for young children's learning. The book covers every aspect of working outdoors in the early years, explaining the importance of outdoor play to children's development.

Key topics include managing and setting up outdoor areas, allowing children to take managed risks, and making sense of work and play. The book also explores how outdoor provision helps children become self-regulatory and provides a framework for professionals to analyse and develop their outdoor provision and environment.

With a multitude of ideas and activities for working outdoors in the early years, this book is essential reading for all EYFS and Key Stage 1 practitioners, and for trainee teachers, their tutors, and mentors. It includes discussions and questions for continuing development, making it easy to incorporate into INSET and training.
