Outdoor play is a significant and essential aspect of a young
child's development and enjoys a renewed emphasis in early years
practice, in keeping with the core principles embedded within the
early years tradition. However, this emphasis may sit uneasily
alongside a requirement to focus on the development of literacy and
numeracy skills and supporting outdoor play can raise a number of
thorny issues such as freedom, safety and risk. This book
challenges the reader to consider: Why outdoor play is seen to be
of significance within early childhood Whether this view is
justified (what are the benefits of outdoor play?) The implications
for practitioners who may be facing conflicting pressures in their
work with young children In particular, the writers skilfully blend
theory, research and practical guidance to address three important
issues: What constitutes 'good' outdoor provision for young
children and babies?How do we respect and respond to the young
child in outdoor provision?How do we support risky play within the
bounds of a statutory curriculum or regulatory regime?
Incorporating chapters from internationally renowned authors
working in this field, this book is recommended both for
practitioners involved in early years education and care and for
students at foundation, degree and post-graduate levels."This is a
thought provoking book that draws on research to encourage the
reader to reflect on the essence of outdoor play in early
childhood. Recognising that within our society assumptions are made
about outdoors and about childhood, this book challenges the reader
to reflect on outdoor provision from a number of perspectives. The
outdoor environment matters to young children. This book not only
makes the case for outdoor play, it considers what that actually
looks like in the UK and internationally, and asks us to reflect on
the implications for our own working practices. Maynard and Waters
set out to provoke critical reflection and inspire practitioners;
they have certainly achieved their aim and this book is a welcome
addition to the debate about outdoors in the early years." Gail
Ryder Richardson, Early Years Consultant and Trainer, Outdoor
Matters!Contributors: Valerie Huggins, Sara Knight, Helen Little,
Trisha Maynard, Ellen Beate Hansen Sandseter, Alison Stephenson,
Helen Tovey, Sue Waite, Jane Waters, Jan White, Karen Wickett,
