Playing and Learning Outdoors: Making Provision for High Quality Experiences in the Outdoor Environment (Nursery World / Routledge Essential Guides for ... Guides for Early Years Practitioners)

"I have to admit I was delighted when I read this book to discover that it was not covering old ground with regard to outdoor play and learning. Jan White is a "pracademic" who combines practical experience within an academic job. This book covers the practical elements of an outdoor area, for example, the maintenance aspects of having an outdoor sandpit. This is frequently overlooked by many outdoor play books. It is also a much quicker read than I expected it to be. The black and white photos do not make the book as attractive as some but in this case the quality of the advice and commentary makes this a very good buy. If you are on a tight budget this book is good value for money."
