The Big Play Experiment is this year's theme for National School Grounds Week from 8-12 June. The annual event is organised by UK school grounds charity Learning Through Landscapes.
The Big Play Experiment aims to get as many children as possible engaging in their recommended 60 minutes of daily physical activity through outdoor play and encourages them to identify activities that motivate them and improve their health.
It also links to the Government's Change4life campaign which is aiming to help whole families eat well, get more exercise and live longer, healthier lives.
Woodberry Day Nursery in Southampton reported a successful try-out of activities for the Big Play Experiment.
