Nature is everywhere! Even in limited outdoor spaces, we can create meaningful play and exploration experiences for infants and toddlers. 🛴 🎨
#OutdoorLearning
ALT Infographic titled 'Nature Play Ideas for LIMITED OUTDOOR SPACE' by the Office of Head Start. It lists four ideas for engaging children outdoors with limited space: 1. Take children on short outings using wagons, buggies, and strollers. 2. Use sidewalks as paths for wheeled toys and equipment. 3. Draw attention to natural elements visible from the window. 4. Use neighborhood resources like recreation centers, parks, or schools.
