How dirty can you get? Open ended, child led, outdoor play is a given at Hunterdon Preschool of the Arts. Playing outdoors in the mud reduces stress and anxiety, develops motor skills, enhances creativity and problem solving, boosts children’s immune system and helps foster a strong connection through sensory play.
Our daily time outdoors sparks imagination, encourages physical activity, boosts brain activity and builds confidence.
So if you’re feeling stuck in the mud… go outside and play in it 😀
