Nursery World - EYFS Activities - Outdoor resource box…traffic

Bought and made traffic resources have enriched the play of one setting’s children, explains Lyndsey Gardner

THEME

Our traffic outdoor resource box was first developed to stimulate the curiosity of a small group of boys who demonstrated a genuine interest in bicycles and outdoor wheeled resources. However, it was also introduced to add another dimension of play for those children that tended to spend extended periods of time on the bicycles and wheeled resources.

CHOICE

To extend and enrich their play, we provided the children with a varied assortment of traffic resources – some bought, but the majority developed in-house by both the staff and children themselves. Through the resources, we aimed to enable the children to learn about road safety as well as the various job roles of people that help us.
