The outdoors is a naturally set up classroom. There is so much for children to explore, with all their senses. All seasons have a different sent, the smell of sunscreen and hot pavement during summer. The smell of fresh grass after a summer shower. They can see how flowers come in all colors and sizes, butterflies have all sorts of patterns. Children can touch different textures like; sand, water, mud, soil. You can measure water weight in a bucket, or how long it takes the water to leak out of different sized holes. The chance to learn outside is as expansive as our imagination.
