Webinar on importance of early years physical activity
For young children physical activity, play and movement is essential. It develops the whole child.
It increases physical literacy (agility, balance and coordination), and supports all round health and social development as children play and learn together.
Physical activity can happen indoors of course, but when children are outside, they are more likely to have space and stimulation for energetic bouts of activity.
In this webinar Michael Freeston, Director of Quality Improvement and Melanie Pilcher, Quality and Standards Manager will reflect on the improvements to outdoor learning made across the early years in recent years.
They will also consider the greater emphasis being placed by аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø¿ª½± on providing a broader range of physical activity opportunities and encouraging children to engage in more physical activity.
