Natural Water Activities for the Early Years

This book will inspire practitioners to think creatively about providing rich play situations for young children in natural water environments. Drawing on the Water School approach, it explains how experiences with natural water can enhance and support children’s learning. Activities are presented season-by-season, with activities for different age groups and all wetland environments, such as coastlines, rivers and lakes. Providing guidance on planning, practical examples, case studies and links to the curriculum, this book will be invaluable for practitioners to educate young children in natural water environments throughout the year.
