Excellent chapter with so many helpful ways to asses our outdoor play space.
“The outdoor play environment has a significant impact on the type of play and behavior of children. For example, if there are trampolines or trees that children can climb, it enhances their courage. On the other hand, if loose parts are available in the play environment, it steers their play towards enhancing creativity.”
