A project such as 'Under Our Feet' could develop as a result of children observing and exploring the outdoors, whether at nursery, in the garden, at home or in a local park. Carefully planned activities to support children's knowledge and understanding of this theme can then be used to stimulate the interest and curiosity of all the children in the group.
As their interest and imagination are stimulated there is huge potential for developing further home-school links, with children applying and developing their knowledge and understanding back in their own gardens or during visits with their parents/carers, for example, to the park or to other outdoor areas of interest.
