WHY YOU SHOULD PLAY WITH US THESE HOLIDAYS

* REASON 6 # WE MAKE NEW FRIENDS *

The Social Benefits are countless - Nature Play is a great way to encourage collaboration and cooperation, it also helps foster trust and respect among friends because children learn how important it is for everyone involved in the play. Children can make up their own adventures as they go along or join in on one of the many ones already being played by other kids. Playing in Nature also encourages communication skills as it provokes children to communicate with each other if they want their ideas heard and understood by everyone else in the woods.
