Outdoor Classroom Day

Outdoor Classroom Day is a global initiative that aims to inspire and celebrate outdoor play and learning, at home and at school.

This is a fantastic opportunity to take learning outside and engage children with nature and the outdoors

Outdoor Reading: Take story time outside. Choose a shady spot under a tree, spread out a blanket, and read stories that involve nature and outdoor adventures.

Build a Bug Hotel: Use materials such as bricks, sticks, leaves, pine cones, and straw to create a bug hotel. This can encourage children to learn about different insects and their habitats.

Weather Station: Set up a simple weather station where children can learn about different types of weather. They could make a rain gauge, measure the temperature, or observe cloud shapes.

Remember, the key to Outdoor Classroom Day is to have fun while learning. Encourage curiosity, exploration and discovery.
