The physical environment in early years settings is crucial for stimulating children's learning and development. Quiet spaces can aid development in language; having access to consistent resources gives children the opportunity to revisit and develop their interests over time. This book talks about the principles underlying an enabling environment, with practical tips for using everyday objects and organising spaces to maximum effect. It also prompts readers to review the effectiveness of the environment.
