Amidst busy city life and fun leisure activities, it's a great idea to carve out time to immerse kids in nature-based learning experiences, as they offer a multitude of benefits that resonate far beyond the classroom. Whether you're a local family or an expatriate living in this vibrant country, harnessing the advantages of outdoor education is a great way to expand your child's learning, especially before the scorching summer heat sets in.
EXPLORING THE UAE!
In a region known for its arid climate and desert landscapes, March is a perfect time of year to take advantage of the lovely weather and introduce children to the natural beauty of the UAE's outdoor spaces. From sprawling desert dunes to lush green parks, there's so many wonderful environments that are full of lessons and learning, just waiting to be explored.
By immersing kids in these beautiful surroundings, they can develop a greater appreciation for the natural world and gain a deeper sense of connection to their homeland.
KEEPING HEALTHY
The warm temperatures of March provide an ideal setting for children to engage in sports and playful activities outdoors.
Whether it's hiking, cycling, or simply playing in the park, outdoor adventures offer a fun and brilliantly effective way to solidify children's physical health and wellbeing. Regular exposure to sunlight also ensures an adequate intake of vitamin D, essential for strong bones and a healthy immune system.
