07.01.2022 Coombs Early learning outdoor sleep program continues. They are becoming more aware of the natural world, expressing their creativity and imagination as they collected rocks, they threw in the pond, sticks they collected to write/draw on the ground and came up with a play concept - fishing, pretending to fish in a small pond at the forest. We are grateful for the open forest space; we can play, hide and seek! ... Children seemed to enjoy the fresh air and birds chirping while falling asleep. WE ADVOCATE FOR Nature-based EDUCATION
