Inspire more outdoor play with Community Playthings

11th February 2019

There’s no better place for play and learning than the great outdoors!

Extending your curriculum outside connects children with the natural environment on a daily basis. A mud kitchen, for example, is a laboratory for learning as dirt and water are the magic recipe for hours of creative play. While indoor play kitchen areas traditionally foster role play, once you create a kitchen space outside and add natural materials, you have exploratory science at its best. Loose parts play empowers creativity and provides unlimited opportunities for problem solving, cooperative play and a great deal of fun, no matter what the weather. Our new Outlast mud kitchen’s intentionally simple and open design gives plenty of room for imaginative, collaborative play.

The new Outlast arbour can create a protected but completely supervisable den where children may retreat from the hustle and bustle of the outdoor area. It’s a great place for quiet activities, reading time or role play. Designed to be easily moved or rearranged, the arbour can be used anywhere in your Outdoor area and also includes storage space under the benches to store natural materials or toys right at the point of play.

All Outlast play equipment by Community Playthings is crafted from beautiful, weatherproof wood and comes with our standard 10-year warranty. See these exciting new additions for yourself on stand B2 at Childcare Expo London 2019.
