Sensory Processing and Outdoor Play

As humans, we are sensory beings. Did you know that without the right sensory input for YOUR body you can not operate at your highest potential? It is the same for children, whose needs are as individual as they are. Outdoor play provides a multitude of opportunities for children to receive sensory input and move their bodies in the way that they need to. Have you ever watched a toddler spinning around and around in circles? Or a six year old who rolls down the hill again and again? Understanding the role of the senses in children's outdoor play is vital for supporting children to thrive.
