🌳☀️ **OUTDOOR ADVENTURES!**

Our learners took their learning outside today! 🏃‍♀️🌿 They ran, jumped, balanced and explored while enjoying some fresh air and active play.

Outdoor play supports **gross-motor development, coordination, balance and confidence.**

🔢✨ **FIRST, THEN, NEXT!**

Today our little learners explored **sequencing** by putting pictures and actions in the correct order. 🧠➡️

Learning what comes first, next and last helps children understand **order, routines and logical thinking**.

💡 **Did you know?** Sequencing is an important foundation for early problem-solving and coding skills!

Left, right, forward and backwards! 🧭 Our learners followed simple movement instructions during an outdoor direction game.
