Nature Kindergartens - Making a Start Approaches to Education, Outdoor Learning, Play It is widely accepted that unstructured outdoor play improves children’s physical and emotional development, mental well being, social skills and opportunities for creative learning. Between 2006 and 2008 almost eighty nature kindergartens were developed in schools in Fife where children go out into woodland, forest or foreshore on a regular basis. This half-day workshop will be facilitated by Chris Miles, who was instrumental in developing this initiative in Fife and who was recently awarded an MBE for services to Education and Young People.
