Play In Green Spaces
Update: 2021-05-06
Description
As cities around the world continue to expand, more children are growing up without access to the countryside, or even to parks and gardens. Playtime takes place indoors or in the built environment. What does this mean for childhood, as well as for society as a whole? Our panellists are Helena Craig, Chairwoman of Black2Nature; Dr Ellen Beate Hansen Sandseter, expert on risky play, well-being, and outdoor education in childhood; Cath Prisk, founder and director of Outdoor People, and Dr Sally Lee, Learning officer at the Cambridge University Botanic Garden. Join PEDAL and our panel of experts and practitioners to explore the following questions: • What impact does play in green spaces have on children's physical, cognitive, social and emotional development? • Is outdoor play different to other types of play? • Does playing in nature change how children relate to the world around them? • What can parents and practitioners do to encourage outdoor play and an interest in the natural environment?
