Last week I spent a day in the woods with my sister's K class as part of her "Kinderwoods" program. The Ss spend 1 or 2 days a month in the woods. I would love to hear what you think the benefits are, and how we can do something like this in PE. #ElemPE @NYSAHPERD @CTAHPERD

@MegaeraR @diver3m777 Organize a boot drive through your PTO. You will get tons because kids outgrow boots in one season.

Crossing our stream requires motor planning and a little bit of courage. Well done, little explorer! Kinderwoods ⁦@mosesybeach⁩ ⁦@MegaeraR⁩ ⁦@WholeChildEdu⁩

These boys are busy gathering “fish” and storing them in a hollow tree trunk. Imaginative play is an important part of #kinderwoods. ⁦@mosesybeach⁩ ⁦@MegaeraR⁩ ⁦@WholeChildEdu⁩

This Kinderwoods kid was determined to move that branch to the other side of the log. It took a few tries and a couple of stumbles but he did it! Talk about persistence! #kinderwoods ⁦@mosesybeach⁩ ⁦@MegaeraR⁩

Whittling works the arm and hand muscles, requires focus and concentration and is very satisfying! #kinderwoods ⁦@mosesybeach⁩ ⁦@MegaeraR⁩

A snowy hill and some old cardboard boxes are perfect for learning about force and motion! ⁦@mosesybeach⁩ ⁦@MegaeraR⁩

These Kinderwoods kids are enjoying a chilly day in the woods. They know there is no such thing as bad weather… If you are dressed for it! #kinderwoods ⁦@mosesybeach⁩ ⁦@MegaeraR⁩

Kinderwoods kids working together to chop ice. Everyone was surprised that the ice was so strong! #kinderwoods ⁦@mosesybeach⁩ ⁦@MegaeraR⁩

Happiness is a bouncy branch and a good friend! #Kinderwoods ⁦@mosesybeach⁩ ⁦@MegaeraR⁩

This Kinderwoods kid is working on his fine motor skills and learning about capacity… And he doesn’t even know it! #kinderwoods ⁦@mosesybeach⁩ ⁦@MegaeraR⁩

[Adrienne Ferretti @aferretti63]

Kinderwoods kids crossing the log bridge two different ways. They are learning to determine their own comfort level and to challenge themselves! #kinderwoods ⁦@MegaeraR⁩

Kinderwoods kids work together to give their friend a ride. They came up with this system themselves. #Kinderwoods
