Exploring the Outdoors in Urban Spaces

Children's Museum Rm Imagine It LOWER LEVEL
"Participants will be presented with case studies from urban early childhood programs that have successfully integrated nature-based play. These examples will serve as a basis for discussion, allowing participants to explore the challenges and successes experienced by these programs. Participants will be encouraged to design their own nature-based play strategy or modify existing ones to better suit the needs of urban early childhood education settings. This collaborative effort aims to foster creativity and practical problem-solving skills. At the end of the session, participants will be guided through a reflective exercise to identify key takeaways and develop a personalized action plan. This plan will detail how they can implement nature-based play principles in their own professional contexts to support the Child's Right to Play.
