What sort of things would you have in your UTW provision outside?

[lostinteaching47]

Hi, I've just been given responsibility for this area in our outdoors provision in reception.I am new to the school (4 weeks in) and apart from the planters, can't really see what they have/what they have done.What sort of things do you have? We are growing seeds, I could set up some kind of role play, I could set up an investigation, seasonal interest area, perhaps some small world type stuff.TBH, the provision from what I have seen is pretty dire(well in the outside it is) It would be nice to see them taking things apart, constructing things, again, what do you do?/have?
I just want to make our outside provision as fab as it can be with what we have and obviously taking a lead from the children.They do like dressing up and making buses/trains etc,

TIA x

I used to have outdoor topic boxes to support the children's interests
So had a Rainy Day box with umbrellas, tarpauling, containers, rain guage, oil and colours for puddles, chalk to draw around to watch evaporation etc
Windy Day Box ribbons, windmills, streamers, windchimes, kites etc
Explorers Box note pads, binoculars, maps, magnifyers, compass pop up tent
Minibeast box collecting viwers information books, identification cards, etc etc etc
