Fall Outdoors Play

It's gorgeous out in central Indiana today. The kind of day that still carries summer breezes, yet hints at fall all at the same time. This is the perfect time of year to get outside with the children in your life. So, whether it's a rowdy group of 4-year olds, a multi-stroller with infants, or excited 2-year olds, GET OUT THERE! Point out end-of-season butterlies or migrating birds. Start that ever-growing fall leaf collection. It's not too soon to gather leaves in a pile and "have at them". The point is to get out here and enjoy the outdoors while most days are still so very inviting. Never forget that every play opportunity is a learning opportunity for the children you care for, but you have to "play" in the first place to make it happen. Have FUN!
