Welly Walks

The most memorable days usually end with the dirtiest clothes.

The children enjoy welly walks every week at Eastrop Nursery.

Welly Walks are great fun and they are hugely beneficial for children, both physically and mentally. They help to build confidence and independence. Working as a team outdoors helps children to bond as a group and encourages them to care for each other and their environment. 

It's great for their physical fitness and provides all the health benefits of being in the great outdoors, including improved mental health and emotional wellbeing.

We focus on our listening skills and listen for environmental sounds such as cars, birds and the trees swishing.

On Welly Walks children can run, make lots of noise, get their hands dirty and experience manageable risk.
