At Whole Kids Academy, we adore our outdoor time.  As long as the temperature permits, we are outside enjoying the fresh air.   It is important for children to have this time to enjoy free play and really strengthen their gross motor muscles as they run around the park, play jump rope, or drive the tricycles. The outdoors also gives children the opportunity to play make-believe and let their imaginations run wild as they play together! They are continuing to strengthen their social skills too as they build relationships with one another in an unstructured environment.  Outdoor play  with their friends allows children to naturally work on their negotiation, collaboration, teamwork, sharing, and conflict resolution skills.
