Using Outdoor Space for Emergent Curriculum in Childcare

Well-designed outdoor space can help implement a responsive emergent curriculum. It can also provide a wider range of benefits for children—reducing stress, sharpening their concentration, and promoting creative problem solving.

In this workshop we will learn how to nurture children’s enthusiasm for the out-of-doors and using sensory experiences and loose parts to accomplish this task. We will talk about examples of experiences you can provide in the summer season.
