I'm a little concerned at the lack of outside play time at my 2 year olds nursery. They have a gazebo and it's not a massive garden yet today (warm & sunny) they only went outside for an hour this morning and a pathetic 15 mins this afternoon.
They insist on hats and sun cream (quite rightly) but if these are applied, why aren't they out every moment they can be in the nice weather?
The room gets the sun all day and only has windows on 1 side so the room is arguably hotter than outside.
I know they are aware of the fact that boys develop better outside yet they don't seem to follow their own thinking.
There's a nursery down the road that has open door policy, even if it's raining.. Tempted to move him.
Advice please :-)
Appreciate they might limit outside time between 11 and 3, but he should be running in the garden the rest of the time (if he chooses to), not cooped up indoors!
