Targeting Early Physical Skills and Inspiring Imaginative Play Games Through Outdoor Play and Learning
Our playground consultant, Tom Benson, was delighted to be invited to work alongside Goosnargh Whitechapel Primary School in Preston on their exciting playground development.
The school had extravagant ideas in mind to improve the outdoor learning environment for their EYFS children - they wanted a space where early physical skills are targeted outdoors and imaginative play games are inspired.
A mixture of active play equipment, imaginative and creative play equipment and playground surfacing has truly brought this outdoor area to life!
Trim Trail Equipment for Early Physical Development
In any reception children’s outdoor learning environment, equipment that tests, targets and develops early physical skills is ideal!
A Twist Net, Clatter Bridge and Climbing Wall has proven to be very popular amongst the children.
They can twist, weave and grip and grasp the ropes of the twist net, scale the side of a mountain as they move their way across the climbing wall to each the other end or carefully sneak across the Clatter Bridge as they try not to wake the grumpy troll snoozing underneath.
This fantastic selection of Trim Trail Equipment is perfect for developing all those important early physical skills through play!
Inspiring Creative Games Come to Life Outdoors
To help inspire creative and imaginative games in the outdoor play space, we installed a Wigwam Den and Moveable Artificial Grass Topped Seats.
Loose play resources bring these areas to life as the children immerse themselves into role play games.
With plastic building blocks, the wigwam can be transformed into a construction site, where the children build themselves a garden, brick wall and front door for their very own cosy house, before playing the roles of those at home.
The artificial grass topped seats become a quiet space where children gather to share their thoughts, relax, socialise or extend their games further.
Away from the black Wetpour in the playground, we installed our comfortable artificial grass. Floor-based games can take place throughout all weathers, whilst providing a natural looking space for children to play.
The reception children can’t wait to go outside every day, using all of their brand-new outdoor play resources to enhance their games and learning.
