The Great OutDoors

Outside is a whole new world waiting to be rediscovered every moment of every day for your little ones. Studies have shown for years that being outside improves cognitive development in people but most of all in young children. In an article Mud Pies and Green spaces https://theconversation.com/mud-pies-and-green-spaces-why-children-do-better-when-they-can-get-outdoors-43151 it goes on to state a study of 2500 children being tested and although the margin was small it was higher when children were in a greener area and were able to be outside more. The article "Can green spaces make children smarter?" it goes on to tell that when studied it showed over a period of 12 months yes there was proof of improvement. washingtonpost.com/news/to-your-health/wp/2015/06/15/can-green-spaces-at-schools-make-children-smarter/ whether or not you believe you children will get smarter or not getting outside with your children will bring your children closer to you and develop a closer relationship, vimeo.com/123598809 and at the end of the day that is just as important.
