We believe that core subjects like math, languages or science can be effectively taught outdoors, offering a multitude of benefits to both teachers and students. Math and science, being universal across cultures, is an excellent place to start...

What's Said about Us
dr.sc. DIANA GARAŠIĆ Educator and GLOBE Program national coordinator in Croatia
"I am not surprised that this is popular among your teachers - those are really nicely created pages with a lot of beautiful and creative ideas for activities, well didactically shaped and explained."
AMANDA CADMAN homeschooling mom of two, Great Britain
"I had never really thought about letting the boys firstly play and usually go straight to learning scientifically. You have helped me understand that play is truly learning, and without this, a vital aspect is being missed out, and the connection for learning is missed."
TOMÁŠ CHROBÁK
1. in Global Teacher Prize CZ and finalist of the World Global Teacher Prize
"I teach mathematics and physical education and thought why not combine them outside? Children nowadays sit and watch their screens too much. They are energised and their senses come alive when they spend time outdoors."
KATEŘINA VRTIŠKOVÁ
1. in Global Teacher Prize CZ
"It's not only children's brains but also their bodies and their relationship to a place that develop when we teach outdoors. Your materials and inspiration help in preparations and bring new ideas easily which ultimately saves time."
