Description
Many books have been written on the early years outdoor environment or contain chapters about outdoor learning in the EYFS but none have really connected with practitioners in the way practitioners want them to. Terry has listened to practitioners and written this book, packed full of colour photos, to support the content and to inspire the reader.
It supports the key messages on outdoor learning and contains chapters on every aspect of this and more! It will be useful to all those working in the early years as well as managers and head teachers, students and those supporting practitioners. It will enable practitioners to provide improved outdoor experiences for children as well as understanding the importance of these.
Terry has listened to practitioners and written this book, packed full of colour photos, to support the content and to inspire the reader.

Reviews
This is one of those books you fall in love with as soon as you pick it up ... Even if you do not read a single word you will see many do-able, tried and tested ideas from the photos, of how you could improve your learning environment and make greater use of the outdoors, whatever space you have. It is an invaluable resource that will not only inspire, but will support and guide you through making necessary changes. * EYE (Early Years Educator) *
