Our beautiful outdoor surroundings:
The opportunity to move freely, developing both fine and gross motor skills is not only important from a physical standpoint, but also from a psychological one.
We have a great big back yard where the children can swing, jump on the trampoline, climb on play structures, ride cars and tricycles; we love to play balls on our big natural grass area!
We work daily on our garden where we planted beans, peas, tomatoes, broccoli and strawberries of course! Children love spending time taking care and watering our vegetable garden. So much fun to watch it grow.
Schedule:
Each day has a pattern and predictable rhythm with which children become familiar. This supports the development of their self-regulation skills within the environment.
