Description
Encourage children’s creative flair with the Outdoor Creative Materials Area 3-7yrs. This ready-made area has been carefully curated by Early Excellence education specialists to provide a well-resourced and inviting outdoor creative area for children. Designed to support open-ended creative learning, the collection encourages children to explore natural materials, develop fine motor control and spatial awareness through hands-on experiences outdoors.
Children can use the Outdoor Transient Art Resource Collection 3-7yrs to explore shape, pattern and texture as they create symmetrical designs, nature-inspired mandalas or 3D structures using natural forms. The wooden rings can be used to frame their creations or used as a weaving ring for the string and fabric ribbons. The sticks, pebbles and natural materials can be arranged to form repeating patterns, or sort and sequence materials by size, shape, and colour.
Children can explore, create, and experiment with the Outdoor Weaving Resource Collection 3-7yrs using the sturdy weaving panel and willow obelisks, which provide a structured base, while the weaving mats provide a floor-based canvas for children to create colourful patterns or nature-inspired designs, offering a space to let their designs flourish.
Through these creative experiences, children develop fine motor control, spatial awareness and early mathematical thinking while learning about composition, balance, and symmetry. Working individually or collaboratively, they build communication skills and confidence as they share ideas and reflect on their work.
Introduce Outdoor Mark Making Resources to encourage children to record designs, plan patterns or label creations, supporting early literacy alongside expressive arts.
The compact shed is weather-resistant and made of high-quality recyclable plastic. The store provides a dry and protected space within the outdoor classroom to efficiently store the outdoor resources and is assembled on-site by our experienced team.
