Make imagination and versatility your priorities when stocking your setting's outdoor area with play materials, says Jan White of Learning through Landscapes Children have a deep urge to explore and experience everything around them, trying to make meaning of their world. Through this they can competently construct their own learning, sharing their interests with tuned-in and supportive adults. Our role is to facilitate this by providing children with appropriate and stimulating opportunities in a wide range of forms. We can then support them to help them make the most of it over time.
