Abstract
The world of children is meaningful only when they are allowed to engage with the environment particularly the outdoors. Over the years, there is a noticeable decline in outdoor engagements by children, and this is traceable to the ignorance of parents/guardians and childhood care providers. This paper, therefore, appraised the concept, features, and benefits of outdoor environments to children. It further suggests ways of structuring outdoor environments for children’s learning.
