Wild Child: Winter play is sharing stories outside

Winter is filled with chances to play and explore that aren’t the same in other seasons. Whatever your favourite way to play, winter has something to offer. Today we take a peak at the fun of sharing stories outside.

Have you ever noticed how a story comes alive outside? It’s so much easier to understand “The Little Yellow Leaf” when you can see the last leaves hanging onto their trees rustling in the wind. “Sadie and the Snowman” takes on new depths of understanding after spending a morning building snow creations or watching previous sculptures melt in the sunshine.

If you or your little person love to read, grab your favourite story (or check out some of our favourites) and head outside for a new perspective.
