Stomping in the Mud Play Group is a rich, natural outdoor play environment where children have the opportunity to play outside,
rain or shine ... a chance for preschoolers to 'live in the moment' while learning through play.

Well, I Have Done It...

 
After many years as an Early Childhood Educator I am very excited to be 
starting my own outdoor play group adventure. Over the summer my husband and I have created 'Stomping in the Mud' play space in our side yard. I will provide a rich, natural outdoor play space where children 1 1/2 years old to 5 years old will have the opportunity to play outside rain or shine.  Stomping in the Mud is a creative, multi-sensory and imaginative place where children can play, explore, 'live in the moment', grow independently and become self-directed individuals. Stay tuned the adventure continues...

  13. Please keep blogging! The more folk who enthuse about outdoor play and the positive impact this has the better. Your outdoor playgroup is a super idea. Just wished my sister lived near you and she could enrol her little son.
