🏡 So what are the benefits of a nature-based program compared to traditional daycare? Here are just a few:
🐞In a natural environment that a child is immersed in the pedagogy emphasizes inquiry-based education. There are activities toddlers can participate in through hands-on play.
🍁 A child will receive intellectual stimulation and learn that the natural world is a huge, vast, and open-ended learning space. The sights, scents, sounds, and textures of the outdoors will appeal to a child’s inquisitive mind. Nature also offers an endless opportunity for creativity, problem-solving, discovery, and education.
🧘♀️ Children are free to move, explore, sing, shout, jump, and participate in other joyous and delightful forms of self-expression which are oftentimes discouraged while being indoors. These activities help to reduce tension and stress, while helping a child to relax and embrace peace.
