At TVCDC our learning doesn’t just happen inside the classroom, but also outside in our beautiful spaces. We have traditional playground equipment, as well as outdoor classrooms for our infants and toddlers and another for our preschool and elementary aged children. It’s our intention to create beautiful outdoor classrooms as a place for children to explore and interact with each other and nature.
Benefits of having an outdoor classroom:
● Increases curiosity and interest in nature
● Improves understand and appreciation of the natural world
● Develops fine and gross motor skills
● Encourages learning through investigation, problem-solving and observation
● Promotes an active and healthy lifestyle
● Encourages creativity and imaginative play
● Develops social skills, sharing and cooperation
