Nature Play Environments in Schools

The average child spends over 2,000 hours in a school playground so nature play equipment incorporates a number of elements that enable play spaces to blend in with their natural surroundings.

Sadly wild and natural outdoor spaces can be a rare sight in urban settings or environments and sometimes children can be totally unfamiliar with a natural garden space and the plethora of animals that can be found within it. So nature play areas create an opportunity within school settings to learn all about wildlife, conservation and how to grow things whilst all the time letting their natural imaginations and creativity to run riot – not to mention getting their hands dirty!

Our nature playgrounds include dens, dipping ponds, wildlife meadows, woodland seating, mini beast exploration, outdoor classrooms and shelters, treehouses, nature hides, fire pits and CCTV bird boxes. And nature play areas usually provide a cheaper alternative to traditional playgrounds and there are various nationwide UK grants available which support them.
