This is a slideshow from a small activity I did outside with a group of kids from 0-5. The children were given individual baskets to collect loose parts that they wanted to use to create art with. They gathered leaves, twigs and other natural materials for their art projects. I had provided googly eyes that they could use. The older kids gathered materials, and I as a teacher helped create shapes for the younger kids and the babies were engaged and contributing in their own way by adding materials around them. The older kids worked independently to create interesting displays. We ended up with creations of different animals, monsters and imaginative creatures. We had plenty of opportunities to explore new vocabulary talking about the natural materials, textures, colors, counting etc.

The children of all ages were very engaged in every step of the process.

Time: 9:30am to 10:30am

Setting: outdoor backyard

Weather: warm and sunny

Materials: Mini basketball hoop, children sized basketballs, and cars trunks.

To make some changes to support children outdoor play. My assistant and I added extra materials like table, chairs and books. Also we invited the children in picking grapes. A group of 3 children age of 4, gathered near the fence. Their laugh as they reach up to the purple grapes. Some stand on tiptoes, others help their friends reach higher branches. My assistant supervise nearby while I take pictures. Children hold their harvest in their hands and proudly showing off their finds. Their hands are sticky with juice and their faces glowing with excitement. It’s more than just picking fruit, it’s a connection to the earth, and memories they will carry.

Some of the children run over, they choose to water their plants. Their small hands are gripping the bottle of water, they move plants to plants. Some are carefully pouring water in the vase, others splashing more water on their shoes than the soil and enjoying their moments. 1 of the children interest in reading books, sitting into quiet corner. 2 others run over to get a chair. The scene is calm and thoughtful. They enjoy looking at the different colors of pictures in the books.

Before all my boys most likely run towards the mini basketball hoop, child sized-basketball and some cars, trucks to play. They show strength, jumping, and throwing balls. They interact cooperatively and take turns.

Now they have more choices since we provide more materials for them to play.

We as teachers, offer encouragement, support as needed, ask open-ended questions. We allow enough time and plan smooth transitions.

I would like to thank my instructor who conducted the training, your dedication and engaging teaching make the sessions truly valuable. And also thank to all the participants who share some experiences make the training more meaningful.

This is an outdoor group activity , it was about science, curiosity , communicating, socializing, cooperating , gathering information, and learning while having fun. Children used their communication skill to talk and ask different questions while building their own thoughts and ideas on the information they get. This outdoor activity comes with a wide range of learning and developing. Children learning their colors, different textures, and smell. Children used one activity and develop several different activities.

I did an observation on this child's developmental skills while she plays outdoors. She was very curious about the stones and the way in which they felt in her hands. This activity helps her to develop her sensory skills, small motor, skills, awareness, and social skills.

This activity was fun for the children. It is water table play. This activity helps children develop social skills, communication skills, small motor, and gross motor, children interact with each and share. At first the water tabe started out with few toys , children started to add more toy out of curiosity. This was a fun activity for them.

With my little ones today we were learning a little more about nature: leaves, rocks, and soil.

Even though they're very young, you can see their curiosity about different colors and textures. It's interesting to see how they enjoy the simplicity in everything.

So I’m not sure I really added something to my playground, but I encouraged them to tell me more about what they were thinking. They found these teeny tiny flowers and they wanted to save them so they were having communication about how to save them and what they needed, (which was water and dirt according to them) so I would ask them questions to encourage them to keep thinking about it. I let them continue with looking just outside the fence and even grab dirt from outside of my turf. This is all stuff I might not have done prior to this class… keep the dirt where it belong etc 🫣

The children engaged in water play by running, splashing, and balancing, which supported their gross motor development. Their play ranged from parallel play, where they played side by side, to cooperative play as they ran through sprinklers together. Older children demonstrated caregiving by guiding younger ones, while group poses and shared laughter reflected social bonding. The children expressed a range of emotions: joy, silliness, curiosity, and pride; showing individuality within group play. Pretend play with toys also encouraged imagination and problem-solving.
