Playgrounds

“It is the child in man that is the source of his uniqueness and creativeness, and the playground is the optimal milieu for the unfolding of his capacities and talents”.

Playing outside is a vital part of childhood that helps children develop physical strength, coordination, a feeling of sportsmanship, team spirit, self discipline, balance, focus, management and fostering the skills of group dynamics . It provides opportunities for children to learn and develop and various skills like:

Social Skills– when they play with other children they learn to communicate, share, collaborate and empathise with others

Imagination and creativity– outside play is often open-ended and children need to be creative about what and how games are played

Sense of self– as they master new skills and play with other children they improve their competence and confidence in their own physical and social abilities

Sense of connection– a sense of connection to place, to peers and to their local community and environment

Self care skills– managing physical and social challenges helps children to learn about keeping themselves safe
