What you will learn

This instructor led live interactive workshop will enhance knowledge, skills and confidence in creating childcare settings that support outdoor play, risky play and healthy child development.  This workshop was developed by Appetite to Play in collaboration with the team at outsideplay.ca.

The workshop objectives are:

  • To recognize and acknowledge your own feelings, the benefits, and how to support outside play and risky play in your role caring for young children.

  • To recognize the importance of providing unstructured and facilitated outside play opportunities when caring for children, and the skills required to achieve this objective.

  • To discuss the learning and developmental opportunities that risky play provides for children, and how to best support this as an Early Years Provider (EYP).

Who should take the Outdoor Play and Risky Play workshop?

This workshop is open to early years providers who are interested in learning more about outdoor play and risky play for children 0-5 years old, and who want to increase their capacity in this field. The workshops are two (2) hours in length, and count towards professional development credits for early childhood educators.
