OUTDOORS

We hope that the creative ideas we share here will inspire you and your family to spend more time outdoors. Whether its playing in the park, foraging for food or simply sitting under a tree watching the world go by we believe that everyone, whatever their age, gains huge benefit from spending time outside connecting with nature.

Children love spending time in wild settings. It encourages exploration and imaginative play, and nature really does provide everything needed to keep them entertained. Playing in a natural environment allows kids to discover and learn, test themselves and take risks – all things that are crucial for their development and well-being.
