The Guide to Outdoor Play and Learning has been written to provide a tool for assisting in the development of outdoor environments in child care programs. This tool is designed to be useful to: a) local Partnerships as they design initiatives to improve the quality of child care programs, b) Child Care Resource and Referral Agencies and other agencies and organizations as they provide technical assistance to child care providers, and c) child care program directors and other professionals working with child care to address outdoor learning. The Guide to Outdoor Play and Learning demonstrates the importance of developing the outdoor environment through addressing the needs of children and the needs of caregivers outdoors. It will provide ideas for activities to consider, and tactics for developing strategies in local communities to address these needs. It will also provide resources and ideas for locating other useful resources nationally, state-wide and in the community. To view this publication online, please email gscobb@smartstart-nc.org. |
