Outdoor 

 
At Adventure Awaits Day Nursery we understand the importance of outdoor play. We have worked hard to make our garden a wonderful and inviting environment to stimulate the children’s learning and development. 
 
Every child within our care will have the opportunity to explore the wonderful outdoors on a daily basis. The weather will not put us off as we have access to wellies and waterproofs so jumping in muddy puddles is not a problem! 
 
Our garden features a mud kitchen where children can make mud pies and use their skills to mix and create. We also have a water wall where children can pour and explore together!
