Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Focusing on the empirical evidence base for pedagogical decisions taken when children are playing and learning outside, this groundbreaking book examines the intention and purpose of childrens outdoor playful activity and the associated issues of pedagogy.

Reflecting multiple cultural contexts, chapters consider social and physical aspects to ensure value systems are visible and critically considered.
