Description
Enhance your EYFS outdoor environment with the Outdoor Games Resource Collection 2-3yrs. This purposefully designed collection for 2–3-year-olds has been carefully curated by Early Excellence curriculum specialists to provide early mathematical and physical opportunities for young children.
Made from high-quality materials, these outdoor resources are built to withstand the demands of active outdoor learning. Sturdy and hard-wearing, they are suitable for continuous use across all seasons and sustain children’s engagement. The collection fosters active investigation, early numeracy, movement and spatial awareness, as well as supporting early mathematical development and schema-based behaviours such as trajectory, enveloping, transporting, and rotation.
Support early throwing and aiming skills with hoops and soft beanbags, introducing familiar and engaging games such as tossing beanbags into tubs or aiming for hoop targets placed at varying distances. These simple activities promote turn-taking, concentration and the development of hand-eye coordination. Children will enjoy exploring the balls in varying sizes which offer different sensory experiences through sound and touch.
Young children can play the “Beanbag Rainbow Toss” game, where coloured tubs are matched with beanbags of the same colour. Children can take turns selecting a beanbag, naming its colour, and aiming to throw it into the matching tub. Encourage vocabulary building by introducing concepts of near/far or in/out.
Pair this collection with the Set of Platforms to extend balancing skills. Explore the full range of Active Maths Games collection and Outdoor resources 2-3yrs to enhance your early years outdoor environment, creating an enticing and engaging environment for children to learn and thrive within.
