The children at IMFC play outside every day, no matter what the weather!

Children learn so many valuable skills whilst accessing the outdoor spaces for learning; from self help skills and independence whilst getting dressed and undressed for outdoors to safety when handling tools, sharing and co-operation with others not to mention team work, problem solving and self-risk management!

The children may go home a little muddy on occasion but we know it is well worth it!

Remember, the children are all wrapped up well against the cold and there are more germs in the nursery playroom than there are outdoors so please encourage your child to explore the outdoors as much as possible!

Have a look at the photo gallery and I’m sure you will be amazed at the wealth of learning taking place outwith the doors of the playrooms 🙂
